In July-August, we all agree that sometimes we would like to be somewhere else than Paris. Admittedly, there are fewer people, we are quieter and line 13 becomes almost accessible. There is, however, something that cannot be escaped. Inevitably, at some point of the day, a little passage on Facebook, Instagram or Snapchat is necessary.
You were starting to get used to this little relaxing atmosphere of Paris. And there, you are overwhelmed with photos: restaurant on the terrace, in front of the beach or worse on the beach.
Summer evenings in Paris
For a long time the only solution in town to be quiet and enjoy the sun was to go for a meal or drink at the only friend who has a nice balcony or terrace. You give him a call but bad luck, he too went on vacation. And then you come to wonder in which restaurant you could take away.
Pizza? No, that's for Sunday night or when there's a game.
Chinese? Already eaten Tuesday with colleagues at lunchtime, and then it does not taste so much.
Supermarket? No, it's okay, fed up with salads not fresh!
And that's it, you had to go home and put the cordon bleu in the pan and eat on the couch…
Revelation
Yesterday, a friend finally suggested the solution to me. I admit I felt a little silly when he showed me. I'm sure you've done it before, well, almost. With all the applications like UberEats, you can get restaurants delivered galore. No need to have it delivered to your home.
My restaurant delivered on the docks
Sitting on the docks, the (virgin) mojito in hand. Let's go, I launch the application, enter my UberEats promo code. Yes, you still have to save money before the holidays. I turn around and take an address not too far away. Order launched, friends always take three hours to choose.
And paf, 20 minutes later, I'm ready to answer my friends that here too we can enjoy the sun. Besides, I even wonder why I would go on vacation elsewhere? No, I'm kidding, don't exaggerate…
