Perfect Spot
My dream location for an apartment in Paris? Well, one of them is right here. Place Dauphine, yes please!
Flower Power
The most incredible display windows I’ve ever seen. Fresh flowers covering the walls together with stunning Christian Dior gowns. Breathtaking!
Today’s Sweet
As you probably know by now I have a soft spot for anything sweet. But if I had to pick my poison it would be really good ice cream, hands down! And fortunately I’ve found the best ice cream I’ve ever tasted right in Paris. Real, delicious and creamy Italian gelato from Pozzetto. I only wish that you could buy this thing by the litre… Mmm!
Today’s Detail
If I had a lovely balcony in Paris I would decorate it with lots of red flowers, just like these at Plaza Athénée. Beautiful!
The Louvre
Even though there’s a million tourists right here every single minute of the day (well, almost anyway) and even though I’ve walked passed the Louvre over a hundred times by now I still can’t walk by it without admiring it just a little bit. The building is so huge and beautiful that it’s impossible to not look twice.
Best and Worst
As you might know by now Les Cocottes is one of my favourite restaurants in Paris. But, it’s also one of the worst places ever to photograph at. The lighting isn’t the best (giving all the photos an ugly greenish light) and since all the food is served in cocottes it’s even harder to get a good photo of the dishes. Well, I guess you just have to take my word for it and give the place a try so that you can taste that delicious food on your own.
By the way, the dish in the first photo was one of the best things I’ve ever eaten.
