Nightlife Spot: Bateaux Parisiens
I didnt know where to put this tip,tourist trap,restaurant or off beaten path !!!
This was recommended to us as a "must do" when in Paris,dinner and a cruise on the Seine at night,so we did !!!
Again,I'd book the day before,although they do make this trip every day.
The waiters were very good,great musicand the food was wonderful,dishes ranging from King Prawns in puff pastry to fillet steak to salmon to duck pate.
Included in the price (120 euros each)was 2 bottles of wine,unfortunately I'm a bit of a phillistine as far as French wines concerned,but I figure if only costs 5 euros and you like it,then thats fine....
One thing I found annoying,was, as you're taking pictures of all the wonderful landmarks of this beautiful city,you coudn't escape the reflection of the lights inside the boat from appearing on your photos.
There a lady who goes round taknig a picture of you,frames it and tries to sell it to you 30 minutes later for 20Euros,we just asked the Brazilian couple next door to take a few for us.
Much more sociable and fun.
