Some tips:
- While you'll be visiting some popular patisseries, do not shy away from trying those hidden gems tucked away on side streets. Many small pastry shops in Paris are family-run and have been perfecting their recipes for generations.
- Be sure to take breaks between tastings. Paris is not just about the food; it's about the atmosphere and the experience. Take time between pastries to sit in beautiful Parisian squares, watch the world go by, and enjoy each other's company.
- Lastly, if a pastry shop offers a 'tasting menu', I highly recommend it. This can provide a variety of flavors without the pressure of having to choose.
