Parfait!


When in Paris, our favorite flat is just steps from Boutique Michel Cuizel on rue Saint Honoré.  This morning, Mary and I stepped inside so I could ask for a few photographs.  Madame was kind enough to  allow me to photograph her making every single box of their fabulous chocolats just so.

Very nice, V. but what I really want to know is: Did she give you samples too? :-) Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)

I'm wondering why I suddenly have a great desire to eat chocolate ?... :o)

V, this has me dreaming of one of my favourite chocolate shops here, KoKo Black. I'm visiting it in a couple of days and can hardly wait!

In addition to being a gifted photographer, you must have accomplished the skill of persuasion. Most shop keepers I have run across(in Paris) have not been so accommodating! Yum!

I was enjoying this image listening to your music {it was Lara Fabian singing Je Suis Malada}...... and there I was in Paris. Thanks for the journey.

How many boxes did you buy?

Alexa said...

That's a very dangerous shop to have nearby! (But Madame looks like she avoids over-sampling the wares.) Thanks for visiting my Paris today, V—I would love to join you on that quai.

Jeanie said...

How very delicious! I'm quite afraid I might not be so reserved as to shoot and not sample!

Jack said...

This looks like quite a shop. I can just imagine the smells.

Virginia said...

Oh I can see you all drooling all over your keyboards. Some of you know by now that I haven't bought one morsel of chocolat in this or any chocolatier in Paris. I guess the camera has kept at least one or two kilos off !!!!
