The best macarons I have ever had, light and airy with a chewy center. By far my favourite shop in Paris.

I love to go to this library and often work there. It is very peaceful and the setting is beautiful. The library is a mine for books about design and architecture.

Sunday walk by the river. In the summer bring a bottle.

Nameless pink shop run by a talkative redheaded Piaf who handpicks and sells allsorts of things from the 1950s - 70s - furniture, clothes, sunglasses, lamps. Unpretentious and priced correctly.

A book shop with so many books that you can search for nothing but find anything. The owner is a member of the 70's french graphic design group Bazooka.
