Things you wish you could do like a French woman:
-Tie a scarf
-Correctly pronounce “Yves Saint Laurent”
-Eat brie and remain stick thin

Live like a Parisian at Flora & Muse, the flower-shop-meets-bistro in CityCentre that opened this weekend. Duck in for a baguette, copy of Vogue, and espresso in the fresh flower market, or stay for champagne and steak frites in the adjoining bar-resto (the chef used to be at Shade). Local designer Laura Umansky used vintage pieces inside and out, alongside quaint tables that make you think you’ve escaped to a European sidewalk café.

Where you’d ignore all the obnoxious American tourists while seducing a hottie named Jacques.
