He saw her across the room through smoky curls of incense. An infinite moment, like inky letters floating from the pages of Proust. There was a glance. The blink of a Godardian eyelash. Her scent of skin and suede. The spark of a lemon drop cocktail. He followed her through a labyrinth of skinny stairwells, Parisian tongues and art deco jade. Sconces of amber flames crackled to the sound of spilled champagne until he reached her. His hand followed the seam of black nylons, pressed against red walls, and rolled into leather banquettes. They melted into each other like Dali clocks. And burned, burned, burned like Kerouac poetry, exploding like spiders across the stars.

CHEZ CASTEL
PARIS, FRANCE
1969 - PRESENT

“J’aime les filles, de chez Castel,” sang Jacques Dutronc in 1983, paying homage to the private club Jean Castel set up and eponymously named.

Originally a convenience store in Saint-Germain-des-Prés, the labyrinthine bar was set over three floors and filled with free-flowing champagne. Internationally renowned for witnessing the best of the ‘60s and the ‘70s in Paris.

The mythical institution has seen the crème de la crème of the Parisian cultural scene, frequented by icons such as Salvador Dali, Mick Jagger, Françoise Hardy, Serge Gainsbourg and Jean-Pierre Cassel.

Chez Castel, a full sensory experience: Feel the vibrations of the Paris dance floor come to life.
