The biggest edge profile we have done! It symbolizes the greatness of Parisian brasseries. In1860, the phylloxera damaged French vineyards and the price of wine drastically went up. Until then exclusive to the North and East of France, beer was the new favorite. It is imported from Belgium, Lille or Alsace by train. With beer, traditional meals such as la choucroute become popular.
After the 1870 loss, when Alsace became German, a number of Alsatians came and tried their luck in the capital. Large brasseries then open close to train stations, such as ‘Terminus Nord’ that was entirely renovated by the architect-designer John Whelan for the Groupe Bertrand.
The setting is breathtaking and amazing. It features royal blue leather booth seats, trompe l’oeil marqueteries, mirrors on walls and magistral pewter countertops with the n.27 edge profile. It echoes the majestic aspect at the ‘Le Valois’ bistrot, facing the Ministry of Culture, or the mythical ‘Chez Miocque’ in Deauville.
