Hameau de Chantilly (Paris)

[2] In 1801, Velloni fils[3] opened the Hameau as a short-lived eating, drinking, and dancing establishment.

Velloni Junior has the honor of informing the public that he will shortly open his new location at the Hamlet of Chantilly with an extraordinary celebration.

A large country café will be set up in the middle of a vast room of greenery: there will be coffee, high tea, chocolate, bavaroises, punch, all kinds of cool drinks, sweet wines, fine liqueurs from the islands, glazed pastries Italian-style, a complete selection of molded ice creams, sherbets, and mousses made by Citizen Tortoni, the pupil and successor of Velloni Senior: a new sparkling lemon drink like the best champagne, a Dutch beer-garden in the middle of the Hamlet, where white beer of the best quality will be served, with various pastries, and generally everything one might desire, all of the best quality, and in the most proper and decent atmosphere.

In this huge space there will be all sorts of fun country games, including see-saws, merry-go-round, badminton, water races, dances in the middle of the Hamlet organized by Citizen Julien; a superb promenade on the chateau's terrasse, newly decorated with pavillions with mirrors and statues; a vase with flowers and lights, and many beautiful orange-trees; finally, nothing has been forgotten to make this the most pleasant and elegant visit.

The ticket price will be one franc for the day, of which 75 centimes (15 sous) can go toward any of our offerings, except for dance and country games.
