It is the city of lights, love and fashion. Paris holds in it surprises and joy that few cities across the globe can match. Considering its high-profile stature and its renowned monuments, entertainment centers and countless tourist attractions it is startling to observe the way in which it churns out a wonderful little nugget of ecstasy each time we pass by it. The latest in that long line is the Derriere restaurant that is located in the heart of the most happening city in Europe. Nestled in the 3rd district of Paris and right behind the 404 restaurant and Andy Wahloo cocktail bar in la rue des Gravilliers, this wonderfully unique place offers you a home away from home.
The concept of the Derriere is to make you feel like you are living at a friend’s place when out on a holiday and its interiors, design, style of functioning and staff ensure that such a feeling is maintained. With the decoration of a French baroque house, Little wooden chairs, messy bookshelves loaded with huge piles of books, an old ‘baignoire’, a bed placed in the middle of the room space and a ping-pong table give the whole atmosphere a very homely air. Then there is the Derriere’s famous ‘secret room’ that has an entrance door looking like an old baroque wardrobe.
With menus printed in thick paper, delicious food and wine to match, the Derriere is a destination in Paris that allows you to escape the hustle and pace of the city and ensures that you feel comfortable in the new glamour world.
