Known for famous intellectuals who used to frequent here (such as J-P Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir, Picasso), Café de Flore still attracts the same kind and many others.
Behind glass panels, I could see young couples, foreign tourists, and wealthy old men and women. There were also families on vacation and a couple of well-dressed businessmen. I could only guess, but they must have come here for more than a cup of coffee. To experience the charm of an old Parisian cafe, to be part of its history, to people-watch, or to daydream -- whatever their purpose might have been, they probably had a very special time in this historic café.
