Le Gerny's

Le Gerny's is the name of a former Parisian cabaret located at 54 rue Pierre-Charron, at the intersection with the rue François-Ier, in the quartier des Champs-Élysées of the 8th arrondissement of Paris.

This cabaret is mostly remembered because it is the place where in October 1935, Louis Leplée, the owner and director of the venue, had Édith Gassion make her debut, a singer he gave the nickname "la môme Piaf", who later became worldwide famous as Édith Piaf, with a 40 francs salary per evening.
