Galettes des rois

Today is The Feast of the Epiphany when galettes will be flying off pastry shop shelves.

Chez l'évêque

This restaurant, close to Notre Dame Cathedral and across from the church of Saint-Julien-le-Pauvre, is called Lévêque, the chef/owner's family name which happens to mean, "the bishop."

Once upon a time

This English language bookstore welcomes visitors to pause and have a read.

On the fence

Posters at l'Église Saint-Germain-des-Prés advertise an art bookstore and gallery nearby.

A flash of genius

The double entendre of the name of this shop, L' Éclair de Génie, won't be lost on the soon-to-be devotees waiting in line to taste what all the fuss is about.

Hands on
