Last November, Peter, Genie and I struck off on what seemed like the potential of a wild goose chase, in search of a new rooftop bar, Le Perchoir. After a good bit ( a LOT) of walking we found the street, wandered through some industrial doors and looked up. I'll admit, I was already exhausted and the thought of climbing these stairs was more than I was willing to tackle. I didn't say so, but was thinking that if I had a drink, Peter Olson would have to bring it to me as I sat on the bottom step. Luckily, oh so luckily, we spotted an elevator so we all went up. The view from the rooftop, and the Jack Daniels bourbon made for a fine ending to the day!

What a great find V. So pleased that you included the address. A bientot J.
ReplyDeleteMagnificent stairs. Admittedly, I'm a sucker for a good set of spiral steps.
ReplyDeleteI missed this outing and want to go next time—must admit, looking at your photo I'm not sorry to hear there's an elevator. :-}
ReplyDeleteI don't do heights very well (actually, not at all) so an elevator is beside the point! But I'm sure the view is wonderful...
ReplyDeleteBeautiful picture of the staircase! Le Perchoir is a difficult, unmarked place to find. I just went to Le Perchoir's terrace at the top of BHV today - another great spot (with an elevator!).
ReplyDeleteWOW! Look at that big boy rising to the sky!
