A long walk between stations took me, unaware, to this doorway in Montparnasse. I stopped, surprised and delighted by the open door to a little private world. I felt decades fade away. It is cool inside, and blissfully quiet too. Shadows gather in patches, ghostly domains of mystery. I dare not venture upstairs. I look at the retro signage, at the glass cabinets. I hear the faint mumble of French voices on a distant television, the sound of a piano. The scent of a meaty stew, and the tang of onion.
