I am off to Paris (I am aware of the unrest) for Christmas.

Any restaurants that anyone would like to suggest? Open to almost any cuisines and any budget. I doubt I'd get into any of the big 3* Michelin at this point anyway.

- Ladurée for macaroons
- Jacques Genin for caramels
- Asian food was terrible in general, pho, ramen, etc.
- Coffee and croissants were solid at almost every cafe we went to. Mom and pop bakeries was our go to for breakfast in France.
- We struck out for dinner, or they were so so place, expect for the river cruise(at night) meal.

Maison Mulot - Saint Germain des Prés
- For anything sweet. Deserved fame for their macroons.

I'll try to find the names of the restaurants.

An FYI, Crazy Horse is incredibly cool. All the girls were the ones suggesting it and ended up being awesome.

Might sound like a douche but sit down at any wine and cheese bar and go to town. I can literally live in Paris for a week just on wine and cheese being so deprived here.

So true. Every time I meet a truly French person or go to France, it amazes that no one is obese.

Weekly protests is a good workout.
