La Galette des Rois

We had a wonderful time celebrating Epiphany with our traditional galette des rois! It was a great opportunity to learn more about this beloved French tradition—its history, its symbols, and of course, the fun of finding the fève. The atmosphere was warm and lively, with engaging conversations entirely in French. Between sharing delicious cake and exchanging stories, everyone enjoyed practicing the language in a relaxed and joyful setting. A truly delightful moment of culture, learning, and community!

Bastille Day

An unforgettable evening at Bastille on Bishop On Monday, July 14th, we celebrated Bastille Day in the heart of Oak Cliff—with wine in hand, live music in the air, and so much joie de vivre. More than just a street festival, Bastille on Bishop is a tribute to Oak Cliff’s French roots. Back in the 1850s, this neighborhood was home to La Réunion, a utopian French colony built on the ideals of liberté, égalité, fraternité—and it still carries that spirit today. Grateful for a magical night full of energy, community, and celebration. Until next year!
