Little India in Passage Brady...

This post for indian cooking lovers

The Passage Brady cuts bld. de Strasbourg
from fbg St. Denis to fbg. St. Martin
This is the section going from fbg. St. Martin to bld. de Strasbourg At Velan shop for catering,
you can find indian items miscellanea, from food to saris
When you're finished with your shopping you just cross the way,
seat down at Passage de Pondichéry and look at the menu...
... a large choice of north and south indian dishes is
just waiting for you to taste... good appetite !
all the shop are closed now,
and Brady's ready to go to bed.
Next time (asap) I'd like to try some Kerala dishes,
which is possible if you ask one day ahead by phone.

(Passage Brady - M° Chateau-d'Eau)

Last year, on November 8th, around 3am, a major fire broke out in an apartment building
overlooking the alley's glass roof. 150 firemen had a hard work until 7 in the morning.

And now, (thanks to Victor), a bit of the daily atmosphere in Brady...

au coeur de Paris, ses restos, son épicerie de Pondichéry, sa lumière et sa somptueuse
verrière...

A Cats-and-Fishes Party at Charly's

There is a fish shop in rue Oberkampf, only one...

but Charly happens to be the best Paris fishermonger of the year, according to famous
guide
Gault-Millau.

Charly likes parties and last wednesday he gathered (one more time) his customers
around a cat pics' exhibition in his shop for a gorgeous "apéritif".

Italian BITTER at La Locandiera

Not the original San Pellegrino...
but... I so cruelly missed it, I don't care, I like it all the same !

Actually Morad* ordered Bitter "aperitivo" under G@tto's request, yes !
and this was my First One !

*La Locandiera : 145, rue Oberkampf - Paris XI.
Ah ! gorgeous !

If you don't yet know what San Bitter is...
take a look to some customer reviews.

Here is an old (1989) San Bitter TV ad - found on YouTube...

I saw this in a shop window somewhere near the Arab World Institute, the little red bottles as a lamp shade... nice huh ?

Arf ! Look at the Violin Spider !

Camel spiders are driving people crazy on the net (and even worse
in Irak) because of their huge size and unfriendly appearance.




But...
look at that poor man's hand, bitten
by the cute
violin (or brown recluse)
spider... and tell me how you feel !




Clinical features :

- Initial bite may be painless, although pain might manifest after several hours.
- No anti-venom is available for violin spider bites in South Africa, and treatment
of the bites is directed at preventing or limiting secondary infection and promoting
healing.

- Violin Spider bites may require surgical debridement and even skin grafts.
- These bites require tetanus toxoid booster.

Please help yourself with a few other details...
Let me excite your perverse mind, feel free to check some other enthralling species.
Welcome to the Spider Club of Southern Africa !

And for people who like camel spiders, please have a seat here !
