**Coût de l’événement : € 0,50** On se rencontre mardi prochain pour discuter en français dans une ambiance amicale chez le café / resto Spreegold en Prenzlauer Berg, ou on a réservé une table (il faut demander du French Meetup). Le restaurant n'accepte pas les paiements en espèces. Merci et à bientôt! PS: Le coût de **€ 0,50** s'explique par le fait que par le passé, certains participants ont oublié de payer leurs consommations, laissant l'addition aux autres.
