TWA, in its excellent nearly-free booklet Travel Tips for France, has a dependable list, as long as Buchwald's, of atmospheric restaurants, including not only the famous temples of French epicurean ism, but garden restaurants for alfresco dining, seafood specialists and round-the-world restaurants of Paris for the food of all nations.
In Scheveningen, which is the Hague's night quarter, though there are also good bars and dine-dance restaurants in the city itself, you will find a glittering galaxy of nightspots on and around the big square on which the Kurhaus fronts. At present, the Casino de Paris is the place to go, with the Copacabana, the Palais de Danse, the Palermo and its Viennese Cafe also imbued with midnight atmosphere.
