🥐 Paris Recs

Food

• Sanukiya
  • This is my TOP food rec in Paris and it's an udon restaurant. But seriously so good, I found out about it from an influencer (Chriselle Lim) lol.
  • Was temporarily closed in late 2025 but is now open again!
• La Servan
  • Asian fusion menu. Would recommend if you're in the area, but not enough that you should travel for it.
• Granite
  • We went here for the lunch tasting menu, because it's cheaper than the dinner menu.
  • I really enjoyed this meal but tbh don't know enough about other fine dining restaurants in Paris to recommend this over others.
• L'Huitreri Regis
  • Lots of raw seafood and also has nice wine.
• L'As du Fallafel
  • Famous falafel shop! I think they have in person seating, but I just ordered at the counter/did take-out.

Bars

• Ritz Paris
  • This is the og Ritz and has a few bars inside, would recommend if you're in the area.

Shopping

• CityPharma for SKINCARE
  • CityPharma is where I went - they supposedly have cheapest prices + offer tax refund!
  • You can get specific brands for much cheaper in the US (Caudalie is like 50% off, La Roche Posay). All pharmacies sell the skincare (look for the green cross) but some are cheaper than others, I'm not sure if all of them have the tax refund forms.
