Paris is really a place for all kinds of things. If you find a cafe on the Left Bank, you will be a female intellectual. I checked in at the Flore Cafe, which was often visited by Picasso, Sartre and Premier Zhou. I walked 20,000 steps a day, which was quite fulfilling.
In the morning, I went to the 132-year-old Cafe de Flore on the Left Bank for breakfast 🇫🇷☕️☀️A coffee shop full of great and interesting souls, Hemingway wrote notes on the napkin, Picasso painted on the glass in the store, and I ate the most delicious Omelette in the world 😋🍳 Then I went to the Montparnasse Cemetery to visit Sartre, Beauvoir, Duras, and my favorite director Chris Marker, and my husband's favorite director Pialat.

Right near the Louvre Museum. It was very nice to eat and drink at the Marxist-Leninist Cafe next to the pyramid. You can choose to sit on the terrace, which is the best place to admire the pyramids in the square. Row 1 of the Pyramid View! The waiters in the restaurant, who are formally dressed and elegant, have a calm and friendly attitude, and they all like the taste of the meals they ordered. You can stop drinking and just look at the dazzling pyramids and bustling pedestrians in the sun, and spend the whole morning in a daze. Beauty is a way of life, and it is also a kind of leisurely elegance.
Cafe Marly is located at
93 rue de Rivoli, 75039 Paris, France
We had a brunch-like meal at Cafe Marly and enjoyed the cappuccino (quite good), the soup of the day (cream of pumpkin soup, too expensive for the taste), the Caesar salad (good, but still too expensive), and the omelette was also very good. The location of the cafe is great as it is right in front of the Louvre Pyramid and you can see the museum. The toilets were very clean. What we didn't like was the responsiveness and efficiency of the staff. We waited more than 30 minutes to pay the bill and the food took a long time to come out, which means it is not the best place for a quick coffee or a quick brunch. However, we really enjoyed our time at this cafe because the location is so good. It is a good choice and recommended.

The famous Les Ombres restaurant is located on the rooftop of the Musée du Quai Branly in Paris. It is stylish and elegant. The restaurant was designed by the famous architect Jean Nouvel. The exterior is a glass curtain wall, and the top metal structure grid is inlaid with glass, which is convenient for enjoying the beautiful scenery of Paris in any season. Especially facing the Eiffel Tower, when the sun is shining, the shadow of its metal lace will be projected on the tablecloth, which is very poetic and creative. The terrace outside is the best place to take photos with the tower.
This is the place where you want to come back to. The cuisine and the ambiance are amazing. Stuff is very helpful and professional.

Les Antiquaires is a very popular bar in the area. The environment is very nice and the bartenders here are local international students working part-time.
The lamb chops are the specialty of this restaurant. I think they are better than steak. I also ordered duck breast as the main course. The duck breast tasted first-rate. The vanilla snails were a little too small.

Excellent dinner and atmosphere. Our waiter was great, shared the history of the restaurant and the abbey nearby. Great food. We enjoyed it.
My dears! How can you not check in at those legendary cafes with stories when you come to Paris✨ Today, I will take you to three treasured cafes full of historical charm and artistic atmosphere, each of which is worth collecting
🌸🌸🌸Café de Flore
Opened in 1887, Café de Flore is a cultural landmark in Paris🌟 This is the place of enlightenment of existentialism and the cradle of surrealism. Even Xu Zhimo mentioned its romance in his prose~ Push open the retro glass door, and the rich coffee aroma with literary and artistic atmosphere hits you in the face. The red velvet chairs, retro mirrors, and marble tables are full of elegance precipitated by the years📸
✨Must-order recommendation:
☕️ Signature Flore Coffee: classic French coffee, with a mellow and rich taste, paired with exquisite sugar cubes, you can adjust the sweetness according to your preference~
🍫 Hot chocolate: silky and rich, every bite is full of happiness, a cup in winter instantly warms your heart!
🥧 Napoleon: The puff pastry is crispy and crumbly, sandwiched with sweet cream, and the texture is super rich!
🎎🎎🎎Les Deux Magots
Who would have thought that this popular cafe in Paris was originally a silk shop opened by two Chinese people🧐 It was they who brought silk to Paris, and later transformed it into a cafe~ This place was once a gathering place for big names such as Hemingway and Picasso. Sitting by the window, you can seem to feel the scene where those literary masters and artists once wrote and talked about art~
✨Must-order recommendation:
☕️Viennese coffee: rich coffee with fresh cream and chocolate powder, the taste is dense and rich, and the appearance is also super high!
🥧 Raspberry Napoleon: The sweet and sour raspberry jam neutralizes the sweetness of the cream, the puff pastry is crispy, and you will feel full of happiness after taking a bite~
🏛️🏛️🏛️Le Procope
Opened in 1686, Le Procope is the first shop in France with a fixed coffee place, and can be called the "ancestor" of French coffee shops👑 Celebrities such as Voltaire, Franklin, Balzac, and Hugo are all frequent customers here~ Walking into the cafe, it seems like traveling back to the 17th century, the ancient chandeliers and carved walls, every place tells the story of history~
✨Must-order recommendation:
🍰 Tiramisu: A classic dessert with a dense taste, the aroma of coffee and cocoa intertwined, you will fall in love with it at one bite!
🍮 Caramel pudding: crispy caramel on the surface, tender pudding inside, sweet and delicious~
🐌 Flame snail: French classic food, rich garlic flavor, tender meat, must try!
📌 Tips for checking in:
✅ These three cafes are super popular, it is recommended to avoid peak dining hours to avoid queuing~
✅ The atmosphere in the store is super suitable for taking pictures, wearing retro or literary clothes will be more photogenic📷
✅ You can order a cup of coffee and a dessert, slowly enjoy the leisure time, and feel the romance and literature of Paris~
My dears, come and collect this Paris cafe check-in guide to experience the unique charm of the century-old shop~💕

I tried the internet-famous shop pink mamma 2 weeks ago. Their pizza is not the best I've ever had. I like the tableware. Overall, it's a good place to eat. It's a pity that I wasn't assigned to eat on the rooftop.
This is a very satisfying restaurant I've eaten in Paris! ! The price-performance ratio is also very good, the environment is very good, very special, and the price is not as high as other Michelin restaurants! The service is very good and very enthusiastic!

A century-old French restaurant in Paris, the decoration is very historical and cultural.
Super good, oysters and foie gras (melt in the mouth) with French Napoleon are too sweet. Overall, it is worth a try!
The service of the big sister is very enthusiastic...
My poor English is good enough to order the dishes I want to eat.
The most recommended foie gras is the foie gras, the steak is fried too well, maybe it is not as good as ordered. Eating snails is a French specialty. If you haven't eaten it before, you can try it, but I don't think it is very delicious. I have to go to Paris next time because I want to try other cuisines.
Recommendations: foie gras, grilled steak
Café de la Paix (Peace Cafe), founded in 1862, was listed as a French historical monument in 1975. The interior decoration is full of European classical retro style, the environment is quiet, very suitable for afternoon tea, and there is a bar further in. The menu must order Napoleon, but I think the chocolate puff is more delicious. A meal for two (two desserts and two drinks) is about 50 euros.
