L'Hexagone Opening Party

Finally, a place for La Colombe denizens to retire to after the coffeehouse closes. L'Hexagone, a new addition to the "French Quarter" in Center City, threw an opening bash on Thursday, June 6th. Owners Jean Wilfrid Thibault and Raphael Perrier had case upon case of champagne to lubricate the shoulder-to-shoulder crowd. As with any French hangout, the bar was thick with smoke and suggestive looks. 1718 Sansom Street has become one of the main places to go before heading to your favorite after-hours space.
