Bob’s 🥯 Shop, Centre Commercial goes Outdoor & Marie-Laure de Decker! A Week in Paris
A new week, a fresh edit of what to see, do and love in Paris (and the Saint-Ouen Flea Market). Celebrating Paris makers and the strange, new true & beautiful.
👑 The King is dead, long live the Bagel King! Our friend Bob has transformed his cult juice bar on Rue Lucien Sampaix into Bob’s Bagel Shop – think hand-rolled, boiled-and-baked bagels to eat in or take away. Our go-to? Avocado + cream cheese.
🥾 Centre Commercial Outdoor opens tomorrow at 10 rue de Marseille – the latest project from the Paris makers behind Veja and Centre Commercial. A new multibrand space for high-performance gear with a conscience: Wise, Pas Normal Studios, Nanga, Lesovik, Unna, and a major Satisfy Running selection.
🌍 Kilometre Paris founder Alexandra Senes has parked her Caravan in Paris (20 Passage Saint-Sebastien, 75011) for a joyful pop-up with friends – including Gaëlle Constantini, Xavier Derome and Galerie Nationale. Sale ends tomorrow!
📸 Opening tomorrow at the Maison Européenne de la Photo: the first major retrospective of fearless French photographer Marie-Laure de Decker – from the Vietnam War to anti-apartheid South Africa and intimate portraits of Duchamp and Sagan.
🌙 On Saturday, Nuit Blanche 2025 lights up Paris with an all-night, cinema-inspired programme curated by Valérie Donzelli. Expect projections, performances, and poetic surprises across the city.
🎉 Also Saturday, head to Messynessychic’s Cabinet (19 rue de Bièvre) for a festive block party celebrating 1 year of this gem of a shop – with good neighbours, small brands, and plenty of heart.
🌳 And tucked away in Saint-Ouen, just a bike ride from the Flea Market, a 19th-century maison de maître has been reborn as Hotel Le Charmant – an 8-room boutique hotel decorated with vintage finds, and with a restaurant, bar and dreamy garden.
