The restaurant is located at 3, rue Racine, within walking distance from the conference (see map).

We will have dinner in the beautiful dining room on the first floor, an authentic turn of the 20th century decoration.

Chill Event

After all these exciting presentations at the conference, have a little chat with colleagues in a casual typical café: the Café Latin. This is called the Chill Event, an informal dinner with a separate registration.

For those who want to get a feeling of the Latin Quarter, we prepared an itinerary that will show you the main milestones of the neighborhood while walking to the Café Latin.
