The Paris Traveler

Top Places to Satisfy Your Appetite

by Lynn on June 2nd, 2007

459935205_f555934bac_m.jpgAs everyone knows, Paris is the center of the gastronomic world, but not just for its wonderful restaurants, top culinary schools, or open air markets, but also for some of the best food emporiums you can find. Many of these places cannot be categorized simply as a grocery store or a bakery; food museums come to mind as a more accurate term for what can only be described as a gourmet’s paradise!

    Wow what a list! I’m definitely missing the Fauchon sweet pink almond dragees…
    I’ve never ventured to the food section at Galeries or Le Bon Marche but next time I hope I get the chance, I guess when there’s so much to see within the store and not that much time on hand, I forget to think about stopping for a cuppa. :-)

    It’s true both stores have so much to see, (and buy!) but if you’re not visiting the food section you’re really missing out!
