PTT Picks: Open Cafe

On one end of rue des Archives you have Le Cox - a bar full of manly men. On the other, you have Open Cafe. The corner gay hot spot attracts more of the "gay French preppy" crowd. Grab one of 20 tables outside for ample viewing of French homos crossing the busy four way intersection. During the summer, the windows open to create a more free flowing environment - and one that's less smoky. And for me, that makes everything better!
