I had a list of maybe forty-two different restaurants and cafés that I wanted to visit when in Paris. But sometimes the idea of what you’d like to do when visiting a different city stifles the doing in itself. So the eatery list was placed aside and what was left were the serendipitous finds of round the corner cafés and restaurants, closest in proximity usually, to our other list – places of interest.

Paris has a rich café culture to offer, a total joy and treasure of the city.

Chocolate Viennois. The best I’ve found was at Les Deux Musées, at 5 Rue de Bellechasse, Paris.

Characteristic of the chocolate viennois is its capping of thick whipped cream, slightly sweetened.
