In a city concentrated with bistros, brasseries, and gourmet dining it's hard to pin point to an address. Though, when in the 6th, the arrondissement of the Luxembourg Gardens and the Saint-Sulpice Church, it's only apt to head to Le Petite Lutetia for a golden, crusted pate au for gras and towering Paris-Brest for dessert. With a terrace spilling with merry wine drinkers and an interior lined with mirrored walls, tightly-packed tables, and baroque-coloured oil paintings, it's the quintessential nouveau bistro. 

The Bourdelle Museum is host to the artistic legacy of Émile-Antoine Bourdelle. Housed in his former residence and studio, this enchanting museum showcases his exceptional sculptures and art collection - a testament to his enduring impact. 

While you could certainly grab a coffee or tea to-go at this sweet little cafe, we prefer to snag one of the tables (or a stool outside if we're lucky!) and tuck into one of their cinnamon rolls. 

At Maison Verot, locals stand in line to stock up on all kinds of elaborate goodies. Try their specialty, pâté en croûte. With multiple locations across the city, we like the Rue Notre Dame des Champs the most to gather snacks for a picnic in the nearby Jardin du Luxembourg.
