The plaque for the victims is secured on the concrete wall across from the Bistrot des Oies, waiting to be unveiled Sunday. But already restaurant owner Stephane Dantier doesn't like it.
"It transforms this neighborhood into a monument to the dead," Dantier says. "We didn't want it."
Nearby, diners linger over a late lunch. Dantier himself is having a glass of red wine with customers at the bar.
Across the street one year ago, jihadist gunmen opened fire on a balmy November evening, killing 15 people at a bar and Cambodian restaurant. Today, both establishments are back in business, but the neighborhood is not the same.
"We can't move on," Dantier says of the November 13 attacks last year that killed 130 people and wounded more than 400.
