Dear readers,

this is a message from the Gritian Nation. As you know, after 5 years of blogging and 699 posts, our exquisite leader, the Great King Negrito had decided to retire. All thought that would be fine, but the Gritian Secret Services kept an eye on him, you never know…and they were right, look at this paparazzi shot….

Yes, this is King Negrito as of yesterday…

Can you imagine this? King Negrito, the specialist of the good food, the lover of fine wines, King Negrito drinking Coca Cola and eating…whatever this is (still under analyze in the Gritian Labs) ????

Stay tuned, the Gritian Secret Services will keep you aware, updated, King negrito is a star, and it is not because he decided to retire that we will not inform you !!!! Ahahaha !!!

Long live the Gritian Nation ! Hasta l’A12G !

Kisses to all

Dear readers,

walking in the street I had a sudden blast, it seems the A12G has gone radical, would some of the lost members enter radical action ?

King Negrito: there is a message there…

I will investigate, but be careful they may be near you !

Dear readers,

Sometimes, I make a dream. that dream is very simple: I just give back my crown, I am not any more the King of the Gritos, and I take a last plane to a cool place.

This blog will have 5 years on the 27th of June 2009. I start to wonder if it is not the right time to let it go and make that dream come true. But as I am a very careful Grito, I went to Venice to check first. This place is heaven on earth.

Kisses to all

King Negrito

Dear readers,

Sometimes it is good to travel and feel like home. This is why I will soon talk and write about English / American places in Paris where King Negrito likes to spot trends among English speaking people, but today I wanted to do the opposite and warn you that there is a strange eruption of places called the Buddha Bar.

King Negrito: Buddha Bar in Paris, the original one

The original Buddha bar is along the Hotel de Crillon, nearby to place de la Concorde in the heart of Paris. The place used to be trendy kind of ten-fifteen years ago when Claude Challe created the notion of Lounge music – that differs from elevator music because you listen to it lying on a sofa instead of standing next to an aqua fresh stinking businessman – and , well in good old times the door was quite difficult and the place full of supermodels. Now it is more full of people who would like to watch beautiful people, and is still quite overpriced, at least the restaurant. But still, this is a place that you know, and when you go to Dubai, well, why not give it a try ?

King Negrito: another Buddha Bar in Dubaï?

In fact this one is far better than the original one in the sense it is full of expat people with a lot of money who are just there to have fun. Therefore it becomes rapidly a fantastic sightseeing spot to observe human behavior and nuptial parades. But of course this is not the only one, the very Parisian Buddha bar concept seems to export quite well, and when you go to Cairo, you can sit at the crossing of civilizations: Buddha sits by the Nile !!!

King Negrito: why not a Sphinx Bar?

If you compare the experience with Paris, ahem, let’s say this one is far less festive and the wine is absolutely terrible – really I mean it, do not even try. But the place is nearer to the lounge concepts, there is space – instead of the awful corridor bar where you cannot even walk – above the main room and you have a wonderful view on the Nile instead of being locked down underground. Therefore I would definitely vote for this one: the real Buddha moved from Paris to Cairo J

Kisses to all

PS : and for the ones who ask about the girls, well I guess paris will always be Paris
