Fifa Fan Fest; Hotel Le Parc Trocadéro

Fifa Fan Fest Paris (big screen for World Cup!) at the Trocadéro square just 15 mins' walk from our place. We were refused entry cos no wine/bottles/sharp objects allowed (we actually prepared a picnic basket) but managed to settle on some grass patches along the side, so no biggie :) In fact, happy to not squeeze with the crowds!

Dinner at a hotel near our place with a nice hidden courtyard. The French are really big on courtyards and I like the concept. Quiet & peaceful yet natural & open. Makes a really tranquil dining experience. A huge contrast from the busy roads just on the other side of the building.
There is a surprise menu in which the chef will decide your 2 or 3-course meal. I tried it and recommend this option only if you REALLY have no preference/nothing on the menu interests you. This place is rather value for money. 3 of us (with S' friend Sofia) had a 2-course meal each, as well as a bottle of wine, and the bill came up to be less than expected.
Name: Hotel Le Parc Trocadéro
Location: 75116 Paris
