Prescription Cocktail Club
2023 Feb 03
Superb cocktail bar! First off, the vibe is great. Low lights, comfy seats, nice music, and tasteful decoration. It is surprisingly spacious, with plenty of seats in its two stories. Second, the staff is fantastic. Not only are they friendly, they know their stuff and will be happy to guide you through your cocktail journey. Let them. The cocktails were delicious, surprising, and masterfully made. In particular, L'Ermite was outstanding. Without the staff's recommendation, I'd not dared order a cocktail with rhubarb and beetroot. And it was so worth it. Prices were in line with other cocktail places. Despite being a Monday night in January, there were a few people, far from empty. Perhaps over the weekend it gets more crowded. I can't wait to be back in my next visit to Paris.
The Cantab Lounge
2022 Jul 26
Small bar with live music. Apparently it gets quite busy, but on a Saturday night in July it was quite dead. The band playing was okay but the sound setup was pretty terrible. There was a chill vibe, no fee to get in. Got a couple of drinks and enjoyed the music. It was really hot inside.
One room, free museum, pack full with scientific instruments and artifacts covering from optics to astrophysics, electromagnetism and acustics. Worth a visit if you are around but too short to be worth a single visit.
Poke City

Okay poke bowl, fast and friendly service, moderate prices. Overall, it is an okay value for your money. I really wanted to like it more because two friends recommended it enthusiastically. I had the Poke City special and was a bit disappointed with the sushi rice base. Many people overlook the base, but it is literally the basis for a great poke bowl. Perhaps it was late in the day (8PM), but the rice was too dry. Quantity is okay for the price, taking into account you get three proteins in the special poke, but I could have eaten a bit more. Nothing was particularly good or bad, as I said, it's okay.
Harvard Kennedy School
2022 May 23
Harvard's Kennedy School is a vibrant school filled with brilliant students, world leading experts, and renowned scholars. A myriad events take place every week at HKS with key policy, industry and civil society leaders; it would be a full-time job attending them all. While relatively compact, the school offers everything you need as a student and researcher. What's more, it is a deeply inspiring place to ask yourself what you can do for the world.
