The centerpiece of the 9th arrondissement is the grandiose Opera Garnier a reminder of the glamorous nightlife of Paris that was once in this district with theatres, restaurants, cafes, and dance halls. This was "Gay Paris". Along blvd. Haussmann are the great department stores, and to the north the rather 'sleazy' area of Pigalle. Marcel Proust lived in his cork-lined room to write “Remembrance of Things Past” at 102 blvd. Haussmann.

Grand Café : Opéra-4, bd des Capucines -75009
In 1875, the Grand Café was already one of the 'in' spots
on the grand boulevards, bustling with the dazzling lights and
music of the Opera. With its original décor and "Art
Déco" style glass roof, this shimmering brasserie
brings the Paris of a bygone era back to life. Surrounded by the
biggest hotels, luxury boutiques, a prestigious theatre, the setting
is just as appealing as the cuisine.All day and all night long,
the Grand Café proposes a menu to match its style: smoked
salmon, St-Jacques tart with green tomato jam or duck with olives
and turnips cooked to your taste.
