Les Deux Magots

Les Deux Magots is the cafe where Morley Callaghan meets with F. Scott. Fitzgerald. Callaghan states the importance of the cafes surrounding the St. Germain de Pres in That Summer in Paris:

"St. Germain des Pres with its three cafes, Lipp’s, The Flore, and the Deux Magots, is a focal point, the real Paris for illustrious intellectuals. Painters and actors from other capitals, and expensive women came to this neighbourhood too. Andre Gide might be having dinner at the Deux Magots. Picasso had often passed on the street. The Deux Magots, while remaining a neighbourhood cafe, was a centre of international Paris life."
