About this episode

Welcome to the Earful Tower, the podcast that explores the hidden gems and secret spots of Paris. In this episode, we're taking a stroll through the bustling marché Beauvau in the 12th arrondissement with our special guest, Joseph Loughney, owner of the Early Bird Cafe.

As we walk through the market, Joseph shares his passion for coffee and talks us through how he ended up in Paris as he introduces us to some of his favorite vendors. We also discuss the 12th arrondissment and how it compares to the rest of Paris.

If you're a foodie or just love discovering new markets and culinary delights, this episode is not to be missed. Be sure to check out the Early Bird Cafe website at https://earlybirdcoffee.fr/ to learn more about their delicious menu and location.
