Restaurant Day?

Restaurant Day? Yes, that's right. If you have not heard of it before, nor have us! This is a concept from Finland where two friends started a crazy idea in Helsinki and caught up by thirty ephemeral restaurants  all over the city in just a few months. And a year later, in the summer of 2012, there were more than 700 restaurants in one day that popped up in twenty different countries. The first French Restaurant Day was born last November at the Finnish Institute here in the City of Light with a lot of success. The second edition took place yesterday started at 2:00 pm and it was a great day to get together with whole bunch of strangers in the sunny Paris to get a taste of Finland.  If you want to know if it is also happening in your city, check out here to find out more about this special fun day. Hope to see you in Paris for the next edition!
