➖ B R A N C U S I ➖⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ So, we weren't complete philistines. We did other things beyond eat, drink and shop. Lol. @atelierbrancusi was definitely a highlight - great suggestion from ma G @margaretfancies⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ You can check out all the deets on our recent voyage over on the blog www.kanndid.com - link up top. There's a 🗺 too because who doesn't love a map eh? #PlannedSpontaniety
➖ P A R I S • C H R O N I C L E S ➖⁣⁣⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ _______________________________________________________⁣ ⁣ I love pottering around Paris on foot and just soaking up the vibes. Trying to cram in all the sites and cultural things on a short city break, tempting as it may be, is often a recipe for disaster (I clearly don’t apply this rule to food - I’m an all you can eat kinda gal 😂). Luckily I’ve been to Paris quite a few times, so I tend to skip the biggies like the Louvre , though I do 🖤 it dearly. _______________________________________________________⁣
➖ P A R I S • C H R O N I C L E S ➖⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ @TheBrokenArm⁣⁣ _______________________________________________________⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣ THE BROKEN ARM⁣⁣: ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ This concept store has been going for a good few years now. Tucked away on Rue Perrée, it has a cafe with a teeny terrace that’s perfectly primed for people watching. It carries Kwaidan Editions, Jacquemus, Nike and Lemaire amongst other brands. Reminds me a wee bit of @thelncc in london in its curatorial mix. ⁣⁣⁣ _______________________________________________________⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
➖ P A R I S • C H R O N I C L E S ➖⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ @restaurant.eels ⁣⁣ _______________________________________________________⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ [Part 3/3] ⁣⁣⁣⁣ _______________________________________________________⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ EELS: ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Pour it up, pour it up. Look at all that dreamy jus 😋. ⁣ ⁣ Keep going right for more of the good stuff including a fantastic little tart that was the best pudding I’ve had all year.
➖ P A R I S • C H R O N I C L E S ➖⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ @restauranthelenedarrozeparis ⁣⁣⁣ _______________________________________________________⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ [Part 2/3] ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ _______________________________________________________⁣⁣ ⁣ ⁣ JOIA: ⁣⁣⁣Hélène Darroze opened her 2nd restaurant in Paris in the 2nd arrondissement earlier this year, round the corner from that quintessential French brand Sézane. No surprise then to see lots of chic Parisiennes lunching here when we visited. Service was chilled – food overall quite good, I’d go back if I fancied an easy lunch in an attractive space. In fact, keen to check out their rather nice cocktail bar nestled on the 2nd level. The one dish you should try is the mushroom x confit egg yolk.
➖ P A R I S • C H R O N I C L E S ➖⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ @importexportcam _______________________________________________________⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ [Part 1/3] ⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Finding a place to eat in Paris can be debilitating - there’s just too much damn choice. I tend to scope out places a fair bit before I visit because gaddamn I can’t deal with wasted calories and 💰💰💰 money ill spent. @margaretfancies and I ate pretty well overall. Some of the spots we checked out coming up...⁣ _______________________________________________________⁣⁣⁣ ⁣ First up C.A.M: ⁣ Even though this lo-fi spot had been visited by some big guns like Ducasse, Ottolenghi, Bertrand of Septime & Tatiana of Le Servan (yes we’re on a first name basis, lol), I was a little cautious as it had been slammed pretty hard online by a couple of peeps. ⁣ ⁣⁣⁣____________⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣ So, to mitigate the risk of a disappointing meal, we decided to have 2 dinners. Obvs. A few plates at C.A.M and a 2nd dinner elsewhere. Personally I enjoyed the food, the vibe and the space - wait times were a little slow but not painfully so. ⁣ ⁣⁣⁣____________⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣ Highlight was definitely their tartare with XO sauce - yes papi 😋. They had these crispy fried aubergine stick thing a ma bobs that were also pretty ace. Yes, I’m very technical with my food descriptions 💁🏾‍♀️. ps: don’t let the bad pics put you off. Next...⁣
