In Paris, dinner can be the start of the night. At Le Pompon, inside the Palais Brongniart, a refined meal turns into a party when the DJs take over. Mondaine de Pariso blends dinner with a glamorous 1970s cabaret and live performers. L’Alcazar has brought back its revue, performed during dinner. Nightlife legends are coming back too. Bus Palladium, the rock temple of 1965, has reopened with a basement club. L’Aventure, a cult 1980s address, is now a restaurant and private club. Doobie’s, first opened in 1938, is back as a restaurant and late-night bar. And Chez Gala, the party restaurant, has reopened at a new address just off the Champs-Élysées. For a more Italian mood, Noto ends its evenings with live music, and Cassaro’s brings the Costes brand of glamour. At Thoumieux, the party starts with the second seating. And near Oberkampf, Le Poisson Volant serves Franco-Chinese plates before turning into a club. Off the beaten path, Serpent à Plume hides behind a café and an art gallery on Place des Vosges, with cocktails served in a vaulted cellar. And in the Buttes-Chaumont park, Ora Farmhouse keeps the night going upstairs, with karaoke in its attic. Our tip: go for the second seating, usually the liveliest.
