Mocha Monday

An unforgettable coffee and hot chocolate at Carette, Place des Vosges.

 

Street oasis

Not only are tables and chairs spilling onto streets but imagine turning a corner and coming across this idyllic miniature living room set up on a sidewalk, where enticing hot chocolate, tea, coffee and cakes are served along with wi-fi and wit. And when you return the next day, just like that, it's gone.

What better treat for holiday visitors than a visit to Angelina for its infamous African hot chocolate, with crème chantilly on the side.

Warming up

With the holidays closing in, chocolat chaud, hot spiced wine and tea stalls are popping up on squares such as this one at l'Église Saint-Pierre. 

Sudden café

One of my favorite subjects to photograph is cafés, and I came upon this one completely by surprise despite visiting this quartier often.

Conversation tastes better in a Paris café.

A pretty square

One of several inside Village Saint Paul.

Antiques, bric-a-brac, hot chocolate and a charming hat shop are some of the finds that await flâneurs and flâneuses.
