Two weeks ago I mentioned that I had written an article for the May issue of Budget Travel magazine, in which I shared some of my favorite food-related addresses in Paris. Well, ze article is now available online for your perusal...

Your blog is invaluable, and the article was awesome. Thanks for letting your readers visit Paris with you!
Posted by jen h on May 4, 2005 2:45 PMGreat work on the article. I am planning my dream trip now...
Tokyo can be an amazing food city, but not in the charming ways you describe your Paris, as always- thank you for sharing.

Posted by lauren in Tokyo on May 4, 2005 5:08 PMFantastic article, as always!
Posted by Dreska on May 4, 2005 5:23 PMHope this will give me a nice taste of Paris once I go and visit.
Thanks Clotilde.
An excellent article Clotilde. I recognised some places and discovered a whole lot more for my next trip.
Posted by Barbara on May 4, 2005 9:58 PMhas a row of shopping trollies EVER looked more gorgeous! That word "Paris" has a magic all its own.
Posted by joan on May 4, 2005 11:22 PMAs if I needed an excuse...but you just gave me one to go back to Paris real soon! ( I was there three weeks ago...).
Posted by swan on May 4, 2005 11:57 PMOh, and ofcourse because I haven't tasted all Pierre Hermé has to offer...and because we couldn't find Rose Bakery (or perhaps they're just closed on mondays?)...and because I bought some great shoes and want them in another colour as well (preferably in ALL other colours :-) ), and...and...and....!!
u did it again clotilde.... i am mouth watering here in london at midnight.... fantastic article and i think i will need to plan my trip around your adresses... Merci, Denis

Posted by charlotte on May 5, 2005 1:20 AMmakes for a delicious evening!
Thanks Clotilde, for the article and pictures, and again for C&Z!
I LOVE this blog, and the readers aren't bad either ;-)

I read it a couple days ago on the front page of MSNBC. Chapeau on becoming an international culinary force! Someone's got to take over the ground that Martha Stewart has burned and salted. ;>
PS Thanks again and a million more times for the forum. I find it warm and funny and informative and in every way wonderful on a daily basis! xoxoxoxo
Posted by Rainey on May 5, 2005 2:14 AMVery nice article.
I wish I had read it three weeks ago before my trip to France.
I've saved it for my next trip.
Thanks.
Posted by Allan on May 5, 2005 3:06 AMGreat blog and great article. I've been to Paris only once and now you've really made me want to go back.
Thanks.
Posted by Carlo on May 6, 2005 4:02 AMHi Clotide..that was a very informative and well research article. Certainly makes one want to plan a visit as per an itienary listed by you.
Posted by j on May 6, 2005 6:43 AMI was waiting for it. It's great!
Thank you!
Posted by milsabores on May 8, 2005 6:20 AMI would love to translate it for my blog in spanish.
Great article Clothide!
Posted by LauraB on May 11, 2005 12:08 AMNearing the end of a long Paris visit, I had worked through most of my restaurant list, and your article has infused some new life into the last couple of weeks of my dining here.
I had a wonderful Sunday brunch at Le Pain Quotidien. Later in the week had a great lunch/dessert at R"Aliment (btw I love that ricotta fraises dessert! What else do you think is in it-- it can't be just those two ingredients, can it?)
And today had lunch along with a little gift shopping at Boulangépicier.
Thanks again!
Enjoyed the article a lot. I first saw it on the BP board where someone posted the link. I love it when you mention places to go in Paris on your blog and in these articles. I like to add them to my list of things to see on future trips to Paris.
Posted by Teresa on May 11, 2005 10:45 AMthank you for mentioning the Rose bakery, the tart d'abricot I bought there still haunts my taste buds saying more, more...and for a superlative trip through 'your market'
Posted by Cara on May 12, 2005 4:36 PMWhat an excellent expirience reading your sharming article and the blog!
Posted by Ira on May 13, 2005 2:02 PMThank you for sharing, Clotilde.
Great article! Wish I had found your blog before our first trip to Paris two weeks ago. ;(
Posted by Jeff on May 17, 2005 3:16 AMWe will be in Paris in July at the end of a two week trip to France (spending previous time in Perigord Noir/Dordogne and then in the Loire Valley). Can't wait to try some of your recommendations. If anyone has recommendations for the above mentioned areas, I'd love to hear them!
Posted by Caryn on May 26, 2005 12:27 AMi read your article in budget travel and my wife and i will be in paris mid july for our honeymoon...i hope to visit as many of your recommendations as possible...might you suggest someplace particularly charming - a store, restaurant, park, etc...? thank you clotilde
Posted by judd on June 18, 2005 10:19 PMHi Clotilde,
Posted by Katie Kikawa on January 4, 2009 3:01 AMWonderful article! Is there much different from 2005 that you would change? I am bringing my family to Paris and some other parts of France (as yet, to be determined) in 8/09. Timing is a bummer but only available miles ticketes!
Happy new year!
Katie
Katie - Yes, there are many changes/additions I would make to that 2005 list, and in fact, I have compiled them into a book of Paris food recommendations that you may find helpful to plan your trip; it is called Clotilde's Edible Adventures in Paris.
