Where to go and (especially) what to eat when you're in the city of lights :)
People always ask me this question when they're planning a trip to Paris, so I thought it was about time I compiled a masterlist for easy sharing! Let me know if you would like me to add other recommendations. 
Note: I grew up in the 5th district and worked in the 7th district for a number of years so a lot of my addresses are concentrated in that area.

Best drinks + people watching
  • La Rhumerie - 166 bd saint Germain
  • Les Deux Magots - 6 place saint Germain
  • Rosa Seine - Pont des invalides, quai d'Orsay
  • La Felicità - Halle Freyssinet - great brunch option!

Get your crêpe fix
  • Galette Café - 2 rue de l'Université
  • Le Bac a Glace - 109 rue du Bac
  • Rue d'Odessa and Rue de Montparnasse - creperie des cormorans, creperie Josselin, and more!

Sweets and chocolate
  • Des gateaux et du pains - 89 rue du Bac
  • Angelina - 108 rue du Bac
  • Chocolat Chapon - 134 rue du Bac 
  • Christian Constant - 40 rue des Ecoles - chocolates and mind-blowing ice-cream in Summer
  • VG Patisserie - 123 Boulevard Voltaire (Vegan)

Delicious food
  • Pasta linea - 9 rue de Turenne. Italian but a must try! TIP: grab to go and find a spot on the grass Place des Vosges.
