In Paris, everyone has their favorite cafés, and this is one of mine.
Café de la Bastille
8 Place de la Bastille 75011

Lyrics / music by Montmartre personnage Aristide Bruant

À la Bastille
On aime bien
Nini-Peau-d'chien:
Elle est si bonne et si gentille!
On aime bien (Qui ça?)
Nini-Peau-d'chien (Où ça?)
À la bastille
On aime bien
Nini-Peau-d'chien:
Elle est si bonne et si gentille!
On aime bien (Qui ça?)
Nini-Peau-d'chien (Où ça?)
À la bastille
At the Bastille
We like her a lot,
Nini Dogskin:
She is so good and so nice!
We like her a lot (Who is it?)
Nini Dogskin (Where?)
At the Bastille
We like her a lot,
Nini Dogskin:
She is so good and so nice!
We like her a lot (Who is it?)
Nini Dogskin (Where?)
At the Bastille
