Paris: Early June

Imagine you live in an urban loft with an open kitchen, your famous chef friend is on the pass, you invite all your best buddies, open bottles of wine and then crank the music. No wonder the talk of the town and the place to be right now is Victor Vautier & Camille Machet’s standing room only wine bar – Early June. For just over a year, they’ve been hosting world chefs as a “pop up” concept in their pretty resto-natural wine bar just off the Canal St Martin. The Owners are polished hospitality pros; creating a youthful DJ-dinner party vibe during service, while each chef-in-residence brings their own style using seasonal French product from the open kitchen. Menus are a la carte and change weekly and wines are chosen just as carefully as the food – only low-intervention dependent wine producers are on offer. Walk-in’s only with reservations for groups 4+.
