INTRODUCTION
With its gay mayor, men who come second only to the English on the ambiguity scale, and the not-such-a-coincidence “Gay Paree” moniker, you might wonder if a town could possibly be any gayer than the French capital. Having thought long and, erm, hard about it, we came up blank but, as there's plenty to discover outside of the gay district of Marais, we're happy to announce that the new 60by80 guide to Paris is now live.

Yacht Club
Sample the beauty and beauties of Paris on the banks of the Seine against a drop dead gorgeous backdrop of landmarks, including the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre and some Gallic hunks.
Breizh Café
If you are tiring of sushi, sick of salads, bored with bavettes, then try the latest hipster snack, the Breton fisherman’s best friend: a Breizh crêpe.
Lostmarc’h
In common with capitals the world over, Paris is awash with bijou boutiques offering the latest great smells. But this one somehow stands sweetly apart from the stampede to sell smell.
Bob’s Kitchen
No fancy names, just organic shots of fruit and veg to your personal specifications. Liquid offerings as fresh as they get churned out at the counter.
Pramil
An intimate restaurant which serves a considered menu of exquisite, but unfussy dishes, with an entrée and main du jour.
Le Coq Sportif
This most Gallic of French sports outfitters has just opened a new space in the buzzing Montorgueil quartier. Truly deserves a ringing cock-a-doodle-doo - or cocorico as the French would crow.
Anthony Peto
This hatter admits a madness for headgear but this is more sober-smart with an edge than madcap. For a man about town who prefers a groovy cool to too cool for school.
Balenciaga Homme
As far as style statements go, few come more sophisticated and intelligent as those issued by the House of Balenciaga and their first men’s retail space reflects just that. Bring on Boylenciaga.
