Dear Frenchies, dear Frenchaises,
About French Mondays hosted by James
Join us next Monday for our traditional French happy hour Apéro, a fantastic opportunity to improve your French speaking skills, meet new people, network, and perhaps even meet the French love of your life.
Event Details:
Location: The legendary French-owned Flûte Midtown.
The term “apéro” refers both to the ritual of going out for a pre-dinner drink and the kind of drink you’d enjoy during that ritual. Naturally, this tradition was invented by the French.
Special Offers:
• Kir Royal special for $10
• Fresh Spring Rolls starting at $10 (four varieties available ranging from $12 to $15)
How to get the special offers: Mention French Meetup
Official language: Franglais. Strongly encouraged: French (if possible, in alexandrins).
Why You Should Join Us:
• Network: Bring your friends, your business cards, and your enthusiasm. Our goal is to connect with new members and catch up with our regular meetup family. Newcomers are always welcome, and all levels of French are accepted.
• Learn and Practice: Whether you’re a beginner or advanced speaker, everyone is welcome.
• Have Fun: Enjoy the chic and cozy atmosphere of Flûte Midtown, where French art de vivre meets New York City’s vibrant happy hour culture.
About the Venue:
Flûte Bar & Lounge opened in midtown Manhattan in 1997, taking over the space that once housed the notorious speakeasy, Club Intime. At Flûte Midtown, they bring champagne out of the nightclub VIP room and into the stylish, intimate setting of a New York lounge. It’s the perfect spot for champagne lovers, those looking for a great place to have drinks with friends, bring a date, toast a celebration, or relax with colleagues. In addition to champagne and sparkling wine, Flûte offers a full bar and a menu of specialty sparkling cocktails and small plates.
Practical Information:
• Age Requirement: 21+ with valid ID
• Entrance: Free, with a one drink minimum
RSVP now! Bring your French skills, friends, and business cards for a memorable evening!
See you soon,
James and Jean-Philippe
