BRASSERIE WELPER A LA PLACE CLICHY

"Brasserie Welper à la Place Clichy" 1994

 The Basserie Wepler is still a grand place to sit and look out on to La Place Clichy.

A great dining room to sit and think about who caroused here along with Henry Miller. https://fr.scribd.com/document/170013325/Quiet-Days-in-Clichy

In 1974, I lived nearby on rue Amsterdam, a hop, skip, and a jump, to this famous cafe. I was taken for déjeuner with oysters there ONCE. Those were quiet days with me and my water colors, and mornings at Le Petit Poucet, next door.
