Here is the past week in food pictures from my Study Tour to Paris, where my Economics and Globalization Core Course spent five days. We learned lots about European Economics, but the food and coffee was so incredible that I thought it deserved a post to itself. Enjoy all of the French deliciousness 🙂
Ladurée
We had to stop by Ladurée for a little green box of Paris’s most famous macarons. A lot of the foods that Paris is famous for (croissants, baguettes) are sadly very glutenous. Luckily, macarons are made with almond flour, which I am very grateful for because they are to die for. We tried peanut, raspberry, coffee, salted caramel, chocolate raspberry, and chocolate hazelnut. I think chocolate raspberry was my favorite!
I haven’t stopped thinking about the incredible hot chocolate I had when I visited Paris over our study break in October, so when we had some free time I headed straight to Saint Germain. It was as thick and life-changing as I remembered.
Montmarte Food Tour
During our food & wine tour of Montmartre, we got to try so much amazing cheese, wine, food, and chocolate in the beautiful historical neighborhood near Moulin Rouge. We walked around with the owner the Le Petit Moulin, who showed us local the boulangeries, fromageries, and patisseries where he sources some of his ingredients. Afterwards, we returned to his restaurant to try traditional french food and wine, which were beyond delicious. We topped off the afternoon with a trip down the street to a local chocolatier.
Coffee Break
Walking around and eating delicious food can get tiring, so you have to stop to caffeinate. My adventures this week were of course fueled by many café stops, so this post wouldn’t be complete without mentioning a few favorites.
Sunday in Soho, a bakery where my friend and I had great food and coffee (and my spicy chai, pictured here!) 
Yummy pastries to go with coffee and chai (look at those cinnamon buns!!)
Seine River Dinner Cruise
One night, our class got to go on a cruise down the Seine for dinner. We could see the Eiffel Tower all lit up out the boat window, and we had the most amazing salmon. Definitely a dinner I will not be forgetting!
Smoked salmon mousse, mandarin salad, and hummus to start 
Salmon with asparagus for dinner 
Crustless apple tart for dessert!
We ended the study tour with a bang by visiting 20 Eiffel, a renowned restaurant aptly named for its picturesque location right near the Eiffel Tower. We had an incredible lunch which included roasted eggplant, the most amazing braised beef I have ever had, and hazelnut creme brûlée for dessert.

braised beef with root veggies 
hazelnut creme brulée ft my friend’s raspberry soufflé
Now that I’m back at my flat heating up my frozen chicken for dinner, I’m really missing that braised beef and salmon on the Seine. Big thanks to DIS for all of the great eats this week, I’ll be thinking about that hazelnut creme brulée for years to come!

Oh my gosh! Where did you get those cinnamon buns? We miss Scandi-style cinnamon buns and would love to find some on our next Paris trip. Looks like you had a wonderful time!
