Weekend Links: Week 31

With the arrival of August it’s officially summer in France. Many places around Paris are already closed for les vacances. It’s a quiet time in the city but also a nice time to visit. Some of my favorite articles from Weekend Links Week 31 include the story behind Lapérouse Café, photos from a gorgeous wedding on the Côte d’Azur, a tour of the Maje founder’s Normandy getaway, a great list of some of the best restaurants in Paris. Enjoy!
