We spent our last afternoon walking around everywhere our feet took us. We even got to catch up with my old friend from my Symrise days and it was so lovely to see her and her family! 

Paris~,  you are so beautiful and we need to see you again sooner than later! 

We didn’t get so lucky with this restaurant in terms of waiting. I heard so much hype about this place and wanted to try it but it was impossible to make a reservation. So we waited in line for about an hour to get a table.

Was it worth it? Absolutely! – Said Chloe.

And the restaurant is stunning!

Chloe wanted to try hot chlocolate from this cafe and that’s how I planned this morning around this location. So we walked over just a few steps from where we took pictures, and once again beat the crowd by getting here early enough and waited just a few minutes to get a table. (apparently there’s a line for everything in Paris!) I got a giant croissant and a very delicious latte and OMG I finally had my croissant fix in Paris. And Chloe was very happy with her hot chocolate and homemade baguette with ham & cheese. Yum yum yum!

We got back to our hotel little after 10 pm and finished our dessert and hung out in the terrace again. What a beautiful night to be outside! Chloe and I even made tiktok videos. 😉

My little happy purchase. 🙂

After walking around Avenue des Champs-Élysées most of the day, we came back to Saint Germain to shop Chloe’s favorite store, Brandy Melville. Don’t ask… Anyway, we stumbled upon this cute little cafe and they had live jazz too!

We had amazing 5 course dinner with wine to celebrate our first night!  Even though it was supposed to be 5 course dinner, with chef’s special pre-starters and in-between palate cleanser, bread variety,  and complimentary desserts, we felt like we had about 8 or 9 plates of food. Our dinner lasted about 2.5 hours and it was so intimate and special to share it with my girl. 

When we got to our hotel, our suite was not ready so we set out to go have brunch @ Cafe Angelina first which was so delicious! It would’ve been nice to freshen up after the long flight before venturing out to the streets of Paris but oh well, too bad we couldn’t. I’m so thankful Chloe’s such an easy going traveller and she was game for anything! We finally felt so much better after much needed latte and putting delicious food in our stomach! As we were walking out, we saw a long line for the restaurant and realized we got so lucky and beat the crowd. 

HAPPY 50th anniversary to my beautiful parents!!!

Michelle and Conway treated us for a very delicious meal celebrating Conway’s birthday with friends!

Happy birthday to my dearest! His choice of dinner: Meat.
