Franponais / 日仏語

Many shops in Japan have a French or almost-French name, whatever their link with our sweet France... It is something funny for us to see French-sounding words everywhere in the city, but the language of Moliere is not always perfectly used or adapted to the situation - the well-known brands "Comme ça du Mode" and "Cocue" are the most famous examples. The following shops have been randomly selected during my walks in Tokyo.

Allez, la France, alleeeeez...
