Moved into faaaabulous, huge apartment in the 17th behind the Arc de Triomphe. Kids booked it to start at the American School in January. Now all I need is DH, the DDs and the baggage...

Bravo! Let me know if you need to know anything about the neighbourhood smile

Girls not in Paris permanently yet, so haven't needed a babysitter.

Bonsoir - can you recommend a good local restaurant for lunch on Saturday? Have house guests arriving on Friday! Nothing too touristy...

Le Bistrot de l'Etoile, 75 avenue Niel (French)
Le Relais de Venise - l'Entrecôte, 271 boulevard Péreire (steak and chips) (no booking - get there before 12 to avoid queuing)
Noura on Avenue Marceau/Avenue Pierre 1er de Serbie (Lebanese)

broc i know several nannies in Paris who might babysit - all english speaking, most crb checked, 1st aid and qualified. I would offer but I'm not there anymore.
