Where to Eat: Mokochaya

After Mokonuts and Mokoloco, the duo Moko Hirayama and Omar Koreitem recently introduced Mokochaya, a coffee shop embracing Japanese flavors. People come for the ambiance—a perfectly orchestrated chaos where slow-cooked salmon bowls meet already-legendary cookies, and sweet tooths must choose between financiers, madeleines, and Japanese lemon flan. Everything here is designed to please without excess—proportions are just right, and plates are elegant yet unfussy. In the morning, regulars grab their Hexagone coffee shot while nibbling on a buttery scone, before the large communal table fills up with lunchgoers seeking comfort. With soft light caressing the exposed beams and the scent of bentos wafting from the kitchen, it’s hard not to linger. A glass of homemade pear syrup later, and you’re already planning your next visit.

Must-See: Les Femmes Ont Faim by Anna Leonte Loron

Women eat. For themselves, for pleasure, without permission and without staging. This is the truth that Anna’s exhibition aims to impose on the viewer, in a world where women are more often depicted serving rather than savoring. From March 21 to 23 at Galerie 78temple, her images reject polished poses and barely touched plates. Here, bodies lean in, mouths open, and plates are emptied without restraint. Photographs, archives, and installations transform each bite into a manifesto. For the occasion, the space has taken on the feel of a girls-only cocoon—a true pink playground where you just feel good.

Where to Have Fun: Dover Street Market Paris with Rassvet Skateboard

Rassvet lands at Dover Street Market Paris on March 21 for an evening celebrating skate culture through visuals. Partnering with Globe Skateboarding, the brand founded by Tolya Titaev highlights three new projects led by Austyn Gillette and Val Bauer. On the agenda: MEMO, directed by Trevor Dare between Los Angeles and Paris; IF THERE IS ANOTHER WORLD, a film by Julian Klincewicz featuring Val Bauer; and MIND GAMES, shot by Maksim Kushevskii, where Bauer and Gillette share the screen. Since 2016, Rassvet has blurred the lines between skate and fashion, bringing a vision that transcends borders. Inspired by the post-Soviet creative scene, the brand turns each project into a new way to tell its story.

Where to Shop: A Stan Birch Pop-Up

After seven years of ultra-exclusive creations for a select clientele, the designer is finally unveiling his first publicly available piece. A jacket, of course—the embodiment of his journey, inspirations, and meticulous attention to detail that sets him apart as a true artist. To mark the occasion, the campaign features a cast that aligns with his identity: Oli from BigFlo & Oli, Abou Sega, Pia Lepoutre, Mehdi Boucenna, and artist Nairone Defives, each adding a unique touch to this global vision of style. For those eager to cop it first, the jacket will be available in a special pop-up on March 22 and 23, followed by a worldwide online release on the 24th.
