Keepers of the Almanac

JungleTinyBlueprint began with a simple observation: travellers who love astronomy often plan their trips around planetariums, yet finding reliable information on where to eat before or after a show is surprisingly hard. Museum websites list show times; restaurant guides rarely mention domes. We set out to write the missing page.

The almanac is published from Toulouse, a city with deep roots in aerospace and astronomy, by a small team of writers who care about historic science buildings and good food in equal measure. We write in the manner of a planetarium docent hosting dinner: we explain, we point upwards, and we try never to oversell.

Our entries describe formats, history and planning advice rather than reviewing individual meals. When we name a venue, we rely on its own published information and on well-documented history. We receive no payment from planetariums or restaurants for inclusion.

Our Editorial Standards

Dates and facts about planetariums come from the institutions themselves and long-established histories. Where a detail is uncertain or changes often, such as menus, prices and opening hours, we say so and send you to the venue. If you spot an error, please write to us; corrections are the lifeblood of any almanac.
