Also, my favorite meal that I had in Paris was a picnic put together while walking Rue Cler. Stop at the fromagerie & pick up a couple cheeses, go to the boulangerie and get some bread and pastries, make the short walk (10 minutes or so) to the Eiffel Tower and have a picnic in the park.
Food! is my favorite too. When last year i went to Paris i relish the food if u wanna have grand-slam experience of Gallic gastronomic grandeur won't do better than the glamorous dining room at the Hotel Meurice in the heart of the city. it was redecorated by Philippe Starck several years ago, it's good French bones survived intact ? mosaic floor, crystal chandeliers, heavy damask curtains at the windows overlooking the Tuileries Gardens across the street ? and the magnificent space is animated by old-school but friendly service
if looking for street food :An ?Extra Pita Grecque,? for 4.50 euros, is the best fast food around.
A 5-euro falafel it's near by Metro Saint-Paul. Rue de Roisiers can be found to the right...
Yummy i can still remember the taste. Newa you enjoy ur Yatra!
Hi Baker!
If you?re in Paris for pleasure, climb aboard an Open Bus that makes a circular tour of Paris. Yes, you can get on and off to explore what appeals to you. Or, you can stay on and see it all. There are up to 50 central Paris stops along scenic avenues and glorious monuments. Buses also move through the Montmartre, Montparnasse and Bastille areas. Put on the headphones and listen to descriptions of what you?re seeing in the language of your choice
You can?t come to Paris without seeing the Notre Dame Cathedral..
Walk through the flower market . It?s the oldest in Paris and you?re right smack in front of the Palais de Justice and a second away from Sainte Chapelle, a tribute to gothic architecture.
Take a one-hour cruise along the Seine. There are numerous companies offering them and there?s a reason. Going under all of the bridges and seeing the city?s architecture from that vantage point is more than breathtaking.
