Jaques Genin is a well known Parisian chocolatier. He has a beautiful shop at 133 rue de Turenne. I stayed in Paris recently with a friend and as luck would have it, this delightful shop was a hop, skip and a jump from her apartment in the Marais district.
She dragged me along one day on the promise of the best mille-feuille I would ever taste. They are made to order just for you. Take a look at these little beauties.
Sharyn ordered a salt caramel mille-feuille.
Mine was vanilla.
We had a lovely pot of tea to go with our delicious pastries.
The shop is beautiful.
As well as the small dining in section the counters are full of delectable delights to take home.
There are chocolates of course.
Even the flowers are exquisite.
This is another reason to love Paris.
