Consider this your très important PSA, VIBE Insiders: that impossibly chic, one-night-only Emily in Paris x Boursin Bistro pop-up on December 4—the one that sold out faster than you can say bonjour Gabriel—isn’t completely gone.
We’ve just confirmed with a Boursin Canada representative that a final wave of seatings will be released this week–read on to find out WHEN. Yes, you read that right. One last shot. One last croissant-scented breath of hope. One last chance to live your Parisian fantasy without draining your Aeroplan points.
So get ready to set that alarm, block your calendar, cancel your lunch meeting—this is the reservation drop of the season.

Why all the hype? Because for one night, Café Renée becomes Paris. Literally.
Boursin is teaming up with Emily in Paris to flip King West’s Café Renée into a cinematic, holiday-in-Paris fever dream. Think twinkling lights, chic winter florals, plush velvet textures, jazz crooning from the corner, photogenic moments at every turn, fashion illustrators sketching guests à la Camille, and tables overflowing with Boursin-loaded bites.
It’s indulgent. It’s festive. It’s campy. It’s très Instagrammable.
And honestly? King West has never been so ready.
Guests receive a complimentary appetizer and a signature Boursin cheese board inspired by one of Emily’s infamous love interests—because nothing says romance like a creamy, dreamy, perfectly seasoned round of cheese.

Choose your heart (and cheese) wisely:
- The Gabriel – Garlic & Fine Herb The classic Frenchman option. Smooth, dependable, a little complicated, effortlessly sexy. The obvious choice if your type is “man who can cook and emotionally confuse you.”
- The Alfie – Cranberry & Pepper Sweet, spicy, unexpectedly fun. The Brit with banter. The pick for anyone who loves chaotic romance energy wrapped in a perfect holiday flavour.
- The Marcello – Truffle Salt Indulgent, luxurious, sultry. The vibes-only Italian choice. If your type is “Maserati owner who texts at midnight,” this one’s for you.
Plus: shareable plates, conversation cards for fan debates, a fashion photo booth, and jazz that could pass for Mindy’s next set at La Trompette Bleu.
Let’s be honest: Boursin deserves its own moment
We’re not going to pretend we don’t stan Boursin year-round. The creamy crumble. The soft-yet-bold flavour. The way it instantly elevates every board, brunch, snack, and late-night fridge graze.
And with the holidays around the corner, consider this your friendly reminder:
Boursin belongs on every cheese board.

Family dinner? Bring Boursin.
Holiday party? Bring Boursin.
That friend’s apartment where they “don’t cook but will put out snacks”? Bring three.

Plus—they’ve dropped limited-edition Emily in Paris packaging, which means your seasonal viewing party on December 18 just upgraded itself.
Season 5 of Emily in Paris: The hype is très real
The pop-up couldn’t be more perfectly timed. Emily in Paris Season 5 drops December 18, and Netflix has been stirring the pot with teasers hinting at:
- New love interests (duh)
- New drama (double duh)
- New fashion moments (“Emily in couture chaos” never disappoints)
- A fresh Paris-meets-[REDACTED] storyline they’re keeping surprisingly under wraps
- And rumours of bigger career stakes for Emily this season
Basically: more chaos, more romance, and more opportunities to shout “EM-I-LY!” like Sylvie from your couch.
