Brasserie Flo: As time went by, this mansion opposite the railway station in the heart of Champagne and the city where French kings were crowned became the favourite meeting spot for Reims' epicureans. Politicians, athletes, artists, businessmen and regulars share their taste for excellence in a friendly ambiance.
