Don't miss the behind the scenes footage from the making of: "L'aventure c'est l'aventure", the concert of Rostropovitch in front of the Berlin Wall, Jacques Chirac's first interview, Jacques Brel singing Amsterdam, the portrait of the young commander Massoud in Afghanistan, Johnny Hallyday's trials during the Paris-Dakar Rally, the interview of John F. Kennedy before the presidential elections or the breath-taking suspense of the France-Brazil penalty shoot-out during the 86 World Cup…
Vendredi 16 novembre, de 19h a 22h : Le beaujolais nouveau arrivera !
L'Alliance Francaise fait une petite soiree Beaujolais nouveau. J'ai donc essaye d'inviter un maximum de gens pour partager cette tradition francaise ... meme si je n'aime pas le vin rouge ! Deux verres de vin + acces a un buffet, AUD 30 pour les membres (soit 20 euros).
Friday 16th of November, from 7:00 to 10:00 pm : Le beaujolais nouveau arrivera !
OK, This is a really really French tradition.
Here is the story: Every year, there is the Beaujolais nouveau day... Beaujolais nouveau is a young red wine that you can't keep years and years in your wine cave. You can't find Beaujolais nouveau all year long, it's only during a part of the year. So on the Beaujolais nouveau day, everybody goes in restaurants or bar at lunch time, or/and after work to try it. Usually, every single year, everybody says it's not good, but still every year, everybody gets drunk at lunch time, go back to work all happy and not really productive if you see what I mean ... They usually try it again after work, in case the taste changed..... This was the French story of the day !
The French Alliance is doing a Beaujolais nouveau night.
See booking fews and info below.
Let me know if you want to go before the 8th of november and I'll book for everybody.
