Rue Poussin - 16th arrondissement - Paris

Imagine yourself on a Saturday evening in July. The temperature is well above the seasonal average: the heat is stifling, and the atmosphere is humid. The urge to escape becomes urgent.

Now, imagine a green haven. At times adorned with camellias in bloom, at others fragranced by jasmine, always shaded by exotic trees that bring a sense of freshness and escape. All of this, on Rue Poussin, just a stone’s throw from Villa Montmorency, in Paris.

While the chef is busy in the kitchen, you relax for a moment on the lush terrace. The maître d'hôtel offers you canapés and refreshments. The evening has only just begun.

Such was the choice of Sophie B. for her summer reception hosted by American Express as part of the "Un Chef Pour Vous" referral offer, in partnership with Cookoon Club.
