Paris Pop Ups

A friend recently told me about a new Pop Up restaurant

 in Paris just near the base of the Eiffel Tower called 180,

so named because it will be open only 180 days. 

Pop Up Eateries are the newest craze in Paris

with chefs, new or seasoned, finding short-term spaces for limited-time-only meals

set in whatever works: warehouses, former restaurants, someone's apartment. 

Some chefs are looking to build their culinary career or reputation

while young chefs may want to curb the high cost of opening a traditional restaurant.

Others are simply looking to expand their creativity and innovation,

offering a gourmet yet affordable dining experience.

A few even hope to take the craze outside of Paris

with package deals which will include train tickets, accommodations 

and a Meet the Chef or Winemaker evening.

180 is located on the 10th floor of the Pullman Hotel 

with a rare restaurant view of the Eiffel Tower.
