CHEZ LA VIE


between Rue Paradis and Rue D'Enfer

The name Chez La Vie was chosen because of the location.

The apartment is between "Heaven" street and "Hell" street.

The home of life......

Try pronouncing ‘bone’ in a French accent and you will be somewhere near the pronunciation of Beaune, the main town amongst the sleepy villages of the Cote d’Or region. Beaune manages to retain its air of ancient French town while catering to the many tourists who come to buy the wine. The old city is enclosed by ramparts and a stream, around which runs the one-way boulevard. Just hanging out in Beaune and exploring the many cobbled stone streets is a treat.

The French "L'Apero"

The French Apéritif (commonly known as L’Apéro ) is a pretty slick custom in the French way of life. People of each region of France have preferences for certain aperitifs, usually stemming from traditional local availability.

The French (and guests) have nuts, chips or small food bites such as thin slices of dry sausage, small quiches or hors d’oeuvres.

The most popular Apéritifs in France are:
Kir: 4 oz. of Sauvignon Blanc + 1/2 oz. Crème de Cassis.

Kir Royal: 4 oz. of Champagne or Sparkling wine + 1/2 oz. Crème de Cassis or Raspberry.

Moscato: This sweet white fruity wine is great with Blue style cheeses, salted almonds and green olives.
