For my mom’s birthday, we decided to have a true ladies night out at the Cabaret! We chose a little restaurant near the Latin Quartier and Notre Dame for dinner, recommended by our favorite tour guide, the New York Times. (Itineraires, 5 Rue de Pontoise, 5th Arr.) It was French-fusion and the food was delicious. It was exactly what you would expect from The Times: small, modern, older crowd, chic, and they knew food and wine. The highlight of the meal though, was dessert. I got a Tarte Citron, which looked like a piece of art rather than dessert. Pam got crème brule IN a banana! Needless to say, she was happy.
After dinner we found the cabaret and we ushered to our seats at Le Paradis Latin. We enjoyed the champagne, cheesy costumes (sans tops!) and numerous dances. There was a trapeze, unicycler-juggler-bartender, and lots of high kicking legs. The show was entertaining, similar to Vegas I would assume. My favorite dance was the one in brightly colored 80s exercise outfits, completely unexpected. It wasn’t quite Le Moulin Rouge, but a lot of fun for ladies night out.
