Write a short article on that person in no less than 120 words.

Cool places to hang out in Grenoble

The view from my balcony
As this is my first year in Grenoble, I dont know many places to hang out. I would like to visit this city that I am still not very familiar with. Could you recommend a nice place to me? 
This place could be a nice restaurant (not very expensive, please!), or an interesting museum (I don't like museums much, so make sure it is worth a visit!) or any other thing in Grenoble that would make my life in this city a little more exciting...
I am a student, just like you are, with minimum funds at my disposal, so please do not recommend some fancy 5-star restaurant or an extremely boring museum. I like walking, greenery, music, art (to an extent!), reading, cooking and eating (I love French food!) ....
Please do NOT copy-paste some random place you found on Wikipedia! I can do that myself. I am more interested in a place that is well-known and one which is visited....   Let it be a place that YOU KNOW, that YOU LIKE and somewhere YOU HAVE BEEN..... a nice restaurant perhaps? ;-)
Make it as interesting as you can (you could upload a photograph that you have taken yourself or a video that you have shot) with precisions on how to get there (directions), price, why you think I should visit it and anything else that you would like. Your article should be no less than 120 words!
