In the 1920s, Zhou Enlai stayed for more than two years in a small hotel at 15 Rue Goflua, near the Italian place in the 13th arrondissement of Paris, while reading, writing articles and doing social research. In the meantime, drinking coffee in cafes became an important means for Zhou Enlai to understand society and develop social relations.

The Cafe "God of Flowers", one of the three famous cafes in Paris, opened in 1865. It is famous for receiving people from cultural and art circles and has a history of more than one hundred years. Picasso, Sartre, Breton and Trotsky, a politician, all drank coffee there.

In the 1920s, young Zhou Enlai also often went to the "Flower God" cafe near the small hotel where he lived to drink coffee and write articles. Pascal, the waiter in the shop, is cheerful, full of sympathy for those hot-blooded poor scholars, and likes to associate with them.

Zhou Enlai, a young Chinese, also became his friend. He admired the young man with black hair and yellow skin. In search of truth, he left his hometown and came to France. For a time, Zhou Enlai was short of money, and Pascal always borrowed money to help him. Zhou Enlai never forgot Pascal's friendship and help to him.

After Zhou Enlai became prime minister, he did not forget this old friend. He sent Chinese cigarettes and tea to Pascal many times, and Pascal always shared them with his colleagues every time. To this day, many people in the Flower God Cafe know that China has a very emotional prime minister. Pascal is now a thing of the past, but the Cafe God of Flowers still tells the story of his relationship with the Chinese premier. The Cafe "God of Flowers" now belongs to the cultural heritage protection unit in Paris. The shield-shaped metal plate protected by cultural relics clearly bears the name of Zhou Enlai.

In addition to the "God of Flowers" cafe, Zhou Enlai also went to the cafe near the Paris East Railway Station for coffee.
