City Daily Photo - "Where I Belong"

Theme Day for the City Daily Photo group

this month is "Where I Belong." Although I have many 

favorite places in Paris, my happiest times are spent 

with family or friends at a café terrace.  Although I have sat in 

winter months with a drizzling rain and a lab robe for warmth,

this spring scene with blue skies and warm sun is perfect.

See where other CDP photographers feel they "belong"

This authentic salon de thé has captured my taste buds.

The menu is varied and excellent...

The desserts will transport you to heaven in a spoon

This is perhaps the best seat on the terrace

(definitely a French girl)

Pain et Chocolat

A sweet Paris friend who has a shop on Rue Cler told me about this delightful place nearby, and I was smitten before even walking inside.  It is very small and an older married couple "do it all" from the baking and cooking to the serving.  They are svelte as dancers and move almost as quickly, taking care of the diners. 

The food is fabulous and the inside is as charming as the outside terrace. 

Oh, please note the lap blankets for the cool morning petit déjeuner.

I will be back there for lunch with Holly very soon.
