October 2008 - La Folie de Chartres

In 1769, the Duke of Chartres purchased land near the town of Monceau, just outside the city of Paris, and created a fabulous park there. Today, a portion of the Parc Monceau still exists in Paris' 8th arrondissement. Read our account in this month's issue of Paris Insights.

We recently dined at a newly-opened restaurant on rue Cardinal Lemoine. Called Livingstone, it serves up delicious Thai fare. We give details about our dining experience in this month's Le Bon Goût.

And finally, in our Paris, Past and Present feature we investigate the Temple of Love that stands on the Ile de la Jatte.
