during a lazy walk to Saint-Gilles, I came across a tiny jewel that has not yet appeared in any tourist guide town here that for the first time since I live in Brussels, I felt a sense of ownership in respect of a place. The occasion of the "Parcous d'artistes "has helped me overcome the blockade and to share my secret with close friends. But so far I have carefully refrained from disclosing the news to a wide audience. Now I think it is high time that everyone can enjoy a few pleasant hours spent in "Les deux Paons ", a tiny 25 m2 of cafes, art nouveau temple where everything - from liquor to violet, to photographs, from the authentic service in china for tea bags in linen "Mariage Frères" - back to the Belle Epoque.
winter, on a rainy day is a real pleasure, the atmosphere is warm and intimate: you can read in peace surrounded by no more than two or three other players. In summer you can enjoy the sun staying in one of three tables arranged neatly on the sidewalk. True pride of ownership is the toilet that she should just take the picture.
