Warm winter evenings… (or the birth of the project)
It was on a winter evening, in the square dimmed by the yellowish lampposts that you could barely make out, in the mist that fell on Marie’s cabbage and spinach. In their Food Truck, Camille and Raphaëlle were the only ones who weren’t cold. The most sensitive will remember the smell of wood cracking in the fireplaces, it was then that the first checkered shirts crossed, and the long evenings were then transformed: rich, exciting, lively, sometimes bouncy, simply alive…
After a few evenings and several beers, we heard that the Poquelin was for sale, an obvious opportunity presented itself to us.
It was in December that we brought together for the first time the “eyes that shine”, that dream, those who think of this bar, those who would like to collectively appropriate Le Poquelin to keep life in the heart of the village. Today, more motivated than ever, the six associates are ready to complete the checks of their shirts one by one, helping each other, welcoming, sharing…
Our ideas, our projects, our desires…
Let’s go! The collective and collaborative adventure is launched. We would like to offer the inhabitants of Molières and of the surrounding towns a meeting place open all year round.
We imagine exchanges, sharing of know-how, ideas, debate/discussion, forging links between generations, associations. Rock, jazz, acoustic guitar, cumbia, trad aperitifs, conferences, philosophy cafés, exhibitions, cooking workshops, film screenings… Gather together so that everything becomes possible!
In the kitchen we will honor our village producers: bread from Pain d’Antan, cider and juice from Mathias (Maison rouge), vegetables from Marie, meat and charcuterie from Bert (Elevage Les Jacques), walnuts from Annie and Hubert or even acacia honey from Romain, spreads from Esteban and Eric’s eggs. We have everything Molières needs!
Especially for our famous Sunday morning déjeunettes, like a brunch but Périgourdin ;-).
A place of festive life which brings together, which welcomes, which builds, which contributes to rural cultural life, which awakens consciences and spirits. To stay alive together, in our square Bastide, at our tables, at our market, at our parties…
