Only about 20 minutes slow car drive from Aachen, there it is: a new home for happy dancing feet: Café Modern in Teuven, Belgium.

Surrounded by a beautiful rural landscape, in the middle of Luik, Aachen and Brussels, hepcats, swingdaddies, film- and musiclovers, to cut a long story short, everybody who loves to have an atmospheric and really good night meets in an old school- building from the 30s. Gentle hosts King B. and sweet Miss Lucy begin the evening “Radiomodern” with 30s and 40s films at about 8 pm, one hour later you can prepair for the night during a swing taster class, at about 10pm the band will start to play and 2 hours later you can rock the joint to hot DJ music. You can help yourselves with drinks and snacks at the bar, the hungry hearts just cross the street and have a super meal at Cafémodern´s excellent restaurant.

Those of you who hate to leave this wonderful place can spend the night in the hostel close by. Reservation is neccessary.

So swing yo´ thing to Teuven!

Radio Modern

Nur schlanke 20 Minuten von Aachen entfernt liegt es, a new home of happy dancing feet: Café Modern in Teuven, Belgien.

In idyllischer Lage zwischen Lüttich, Aachen und Brüssel treffen sich in einem ehemaligen Schulhaus aus den 30er Jahren Hepcats, Swingdaddies, Film- und Musikfreunde, kurzum all die, die mit Geschmack und Spaß zu feiern verstehen. Das entzückende Gastgeberpaar King B. und Miss Lucy beginnen den Abend “Radiomodern” stets mit einer Filmdarbietung (30er – 40er Jahre) ab ca. 20h, danach gibt´s für Tanzlustige einen Einführungskurs, gegen 22h spielen wechselnde Bands, die ab 24h von verschiedenen DJs abgelöst werden. Getränke & Fingerfood gibt´s reichlich an der Bar, wer´s üppiger mag, braucht nur ein paar Schritte weiter über den Hof zu gehen und kann sich im ausgezeichneten Restaurant des Café Modern kulinarisch verwöhnen lassen.

Für Weitgereiste und Durchgetanzte besteht – nach vorheriger Reservierung- sogar Übernachtungsmöglichkeit.

Swing yo´thing to Teuven!
