People-watching at a
Paris café
is how I prefer to start the day when I'm in
France
. If you're feeling artsy, grab a table on the terrace outside
Le Sélect in
Montparnasse
.
Hemingway
,
Picasso
,
Henry Miller
,
Emma Goldman
, and
Luis Buñuel
used to hang out here in the 20s.
Brassaï
, the photographer who gave us many bird's eye views of Parisian streets lived above it. Aside from the prices, the place hasn't changed much since this
Left Bank 
institution opened. Want more dish on this famous
Montparnasse café
? Read Noël Riley Fitch's entertaining portrait,
Paris Cafe: The Select Crowd
, which is illustrated by Rick Tulka. Dreaming of visiting it? An American café,
Mimi's, is giving away a trip to
Paris
. Included are roundtrip airfare for two, 4 nights in a hotel, a
Bateaux Parisiens Dinner Cruise for 2 on the Seine, and more! Put down the coffee and enter.
