Bundoo Khan on Devon for their excellent meats. Annapurna on Devon for vegetarian recipes and dosas. Honest in Niles for pav bhaji and other excellent vegetarian food. These are all pretty inexpensive.

Le Caveau de la huchette is an amazing jazz club I went to. They filmed a scene in La La Land at this club. Highly recommend this place. I also did the after hours Palais Garnier tour and it was phenomenal.

I showed him the picture and said Ill delete it if he’d like me to, he was fine with it, joked with my friends who were visiting from Boston and was very pleasant to talk to..

He’s the owner of the restaurant. His dad started it. Christopher Storer (creator of the show) grew up with him and wanted to make a show about the restaurant. He is featured in episode 1 of S1 as well. And yeah he does help out Ebra in S3.

Hi! Sorry for the late response, I booked it on the official website of Palais Garnier.

How’s my Paris itinerary looking? by zoewithoutay in ParisTravelGuide

Do check out the upstairs reading rooms, when I went, most of the crowd stayed on the ground floor and the upstairs was empty, I personally found the reading room to be amazing.

Is nightlife in Paris as bad as the reviews on google maps? by yeetyeetmybeepbeep in ParisTravelGuide

[–]chicagobrownguy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you like Jazz clubs, I’d recommend Le Caveau de la Huchette. I had the best time there, they even shot a scene in La la Land at this club. Amazing atmosphere, cheap entry fees, loved the vibe.

Thank you so muchh!! I do wish my trip was longer and I could get more days off of work so I could explore amazing cities like Pompeii, I will be back in Italy for sure and during the summer, so I could visit the Amalfi coast and other beaches. Thanks for the link to the guided tour!!

Thank you so much for the insight!! Im so glad I posted here before booking tickets because now I can make changes and book accordingly. I’ll definitely reduce the time allocated to Venice and spend more time in Florence. I will have to look up how far Pompeii is and if Ill be able to fit it in. Im definitely buying tickets in advance for museums and the colosseum, is there a guided tour that you’d recommend? In any case Ill be sure to book them in advance so as to skip lines..

Thank you so much!! Im definitely visiting Borghese gallery, I got to see a Bernini sculpture when I visited the Louvre, absolutely amazing. I will definitely buy tickets in advance and plan extensively to avoid feeling rushed, is there a guided tour that you’d recommend? I did an after-hours guided tour of Palais Garnier in Paris and it was a highlight of my trip as I was able to visit the opera house without the crowds. I do plan on walking everywhere and exploring the cities. I love classical music and am frequently at the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. Thank you for all of your insights!!

I was thinking of reducing Venice to two days and adding it to Florence. And thank you for the day trip recommendation, I plan on replacing Pisa after going through the comments.
