　　For summertime music on the Rive Droite, there is no finer spot than this seasonal guinguette (open-air dance hall), with a couple of bars, casual food and live music covering everything from jazz and swing, to pop and beat-rich Balkan bands. Order a homemade punch or artisan beer brewed at Bordeaux's Brasserie de la Lune, and kick back with the hip crowd.
