Petit Plaisir

One of my favorite moments from the week.

Petit Plaisir

We’ve created a makeshift café in our dining room carving out a little nook. We have a café table, little lamp, and two chairs. I love sitting here in the mornings, writing in my planner, having my coffee, and thinking about being at my favorite café in Paris.

On My Paris List

EARLY JUNE

Early June is a restaurant and wine bar located in the 10th Arrondissement of  Paris. One of my friends who lives in Paris put this place on my radar. It’s an intimate spot that hosts different chefs from restaurants all over Paris. We have a reservation while we are in Paris during April, and the chef who will be cooking used to be the sous-chef at Septime.
