PARIS Pt.2

So I left off with that lovely piece of art on the floor from our strolls in Paris near La Marais, we then head back to the hotel to change, freshen up and go out again to experience the Eiffel Tower which was beautiful (We even saw someone propose on it!).

Then we had the most delicious black truffle ravioli ever at Bar Italia Brasserie – I highly recommend eating here if you’re in Paris! An American couple stopped us on our stroll back to the restaurant after waiting 15 minutes for a free table and were excitedly telling us that we HAD to go and try the ravioli as it was like nothing else they’d experienced. So after that and lots of other rave reviews we had read we hot-footed it back to the restaurant where a man smoking a cigarette outside the place told us the same thing again!
 







We hopped in a taxi to St. Germain des prix on Sunday, which was more of a reserved and chilled area than Le Marais – It felt like quite an affluent area and was pretty, but unfortunately most shops were closed because it was sunday.
Nevertheless we found some cute stores, bought some gifts to bring home for the family and explored the little streets which lead us onto a bustling side-road brimming with restaurants and we sat and ate Muscles and frites while chatting to the lovely elderly couple next to us about travelling and food.
 







How cute is this little dog? I had to snap him/her!

If you check out our vlog from the trip you can see me trying out treats from this little cake shop above. I tried a Cronut for the first time and it was pretty damn mouthwatering!
That actually reminds me to find one back in London soon so I can have another!

It was a lovely little trip away, I adore travelling, exploring and meeting people from around the world. We did just the right amount of things with the time we had and had lots of amazing french food – oh that French food! *daydreams*

I’m off for a coffee and a croissant! (Its a lot earlier in the day when I’m writing this)

Hope you enjoyed our little French photo-diary!
