Paris is an elegant city. I’ve lived in London, New York, Los Angeles and Barcelona, and nowhere have I seen or experienced as much of it: in the architecture, in the way people dress, in the storefronts.
One of the places that exudes a welcoming elegance is the tea house
Mariage Frères, on 30 rue du Bourg-Tibourg, in the Marais (there are two others in the city).
It is not only non-smoking, but has scrumptious delicate tea, a simple, lovely decor, and waiters dressed in white that serve your every need as though you were a queen.
Last week, I went twice, and each time I walked out feeling satiated in mind, body and soul.
Will you just look at that fancy spoon serving square morsels of sugar!
Our table was right next to these glorious madeleines and (in the back) cake with grated jade on it.
It is not only non-smoking, but has scrumptious delicate tea, a simple, lovely decor, and waiters dressed in white that serve your every need as though you were a queen.
