There's a wonderful little publication I read called Journal De Nîmes. Their French Issue included a magical illustrated city report of Paris with many out of the ordinary spots.
I can't wait to check a few of them out myself!
I'll be spending most of my stay in Rouen, but will be traveling to Paris for a few days to see a friend's band play and spend time with him :)
P.S. I am dying to purchase some French underpinnings :) Let me know if you hear of any cute boutiques? I also am trying to find out where the best pastries are!
I loved the Moulin Rouge!! you must see a show! It is amazing, also a show at the Crazy Horse is a must as well!!! I know that at the Moulin, tickets are about $90 dollars or so and you get a bottle of champagne with it. :) have fun! xoxo
This site is marvellous for out-of-the way places... http://paris.unlike.net/ for shopping check out mamie and mamie blue for very nice vintage. Very tiny well-edited shops and the only other customer when I was there was Jarvis Cocker (he bought a turban). And you absolutely have to go to Shakespeare and Co. bookstore, it's a very nice place to meet fellow traveling bohemians and you can stay there for free if you are lucky!
I'm going in November as well :)
