Kong

Kong was one of our final meals in Paris, and definitely one of the best, after a helpful recommendation from our hotel’s concierge. The restaurant offers a well rounded menu of modern Asian-French fusion dishes, all that come with stunning presentation and top notch taste. Jen started out with the Tomato Mozzarella "Glam Chic", a [...]


Amorino Gelanti E Delizie D’Italia

Amorino is a gelato boutique with almost 30 stores globally…and really, it’s not hard to understand why. The gelato is, for lack of a better term, OM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM. Delicious. I can’t think of any gelato that I’ve had outside of Italy that’s tasted as good as the stuff here. They [...]


Indiana Cafe

Indiana Cafe is a strange, strange place. The best Jen I could think of it being was what the French perceive American life to be, much in the way those of us living stateside perceive french waiters to have pencil thin moustaches, berets, striped shirts, and a bandana tied around their neck. The menu provides [...]


Berko Bakery

Berko Bakery is one of the few places that dishes out cupcakes to Paris. The bakery, nestled deep in La Marais, boasts a raft of baked goods including cheesecakes and various tartlettes for your devouring. The bakery is attractive and modern, and everything in the store are in glass display cases, showing off their sugary [...]


Le Paradis Du Fruit

  Le Paradis Du Fruit is a fruit bar, although not one that can slip into your pocket and leave you with a sticky fingered treat later in the day. The restaurant chain emphasizes a wide selection of fruit, salads, stuffed breads, and tartines, all at a pretty good price. Jen and I stopped in [...]


Gourmandises Bretonnes Creperie

The Gourmandises Bretonnes Creperie is what seems to be just another crepe shop in the narrow streets of Paris. I popped in here after our dinner at La Grenier de Notre-Dame to get a meat-n-cheese crepe, and this just happened to be the first place we saw. The interior is clean and there is seating [...]


La Grenier de Notre-Dame

  La Grenier de Notre-Dame is one of the few vegetarian establishments in Paris. I found the recommendation on one of the herbivore websites listing off the best vegetarian restaurants in the city. It’s tucked away on one of the side streets just south of Notre Dame and on the south side of the river. [...]


La Frégate

  La Frégate sits right on the southside of the Seine River in Paris, at one end of the Pont Royal bridge and just a few minutes away from le Jardin de Tuileries and the Louvre, residence of Mona Lisa. The restaurant seems to fit in with your assortment of standard French cafes. There is [...]
