five-euro mojitos

It's been an adjustment getting used to an office environment again. And working 9:30am to 6:30-7pm. And trying to understand French for nine hours. (I'm working on the speaking part, but for now I mostly just listen really carefully... and join the conversation in my head. I'm really as cool as I seem). So, it took no time for me to embrace after-work happy hours! They're the perfect opportunity to wind down from a long day and catch up with an English-speaking friend. As of late, I've been frequenting  Le Kitch.
Their entire cocktail menu is 5-euros during happy hour (5.30-9pm, sometimes 11pm). I prefer the Shrek, a frozen mojito that tastes like a refreshing smoothie and packs an alcoholic punch--not that the second part is necessary, but I'm also not complaining. It's delish. The Princess Fiona is pretty good, too, if you have a thing for strawberry. I absolutely love the laid back vibe and quirky decor though. It's just what I need before a leisurely walk to the metro, a quick commute home, and a real, homemade dinner.

  1. One of my favorite things about living in a big city is taking part in the after work happy hour vibe. There's just something so 'young professional' about it :) And you can't beat 5 euro cocktails!
