Got hungry after walking around the Louvre and amazingly, there was a food cart of the Paul french bakery chain outside the museum grounds. I am a huge fan of Paul’s lunch special set (their pastries are amazing and the sandwiches hearty) so we picked up some quiches, baguettes and croissants for an impromptu picnic on the Tuileries garden lawn before setting off for the Musee de l’Orangerie. Delicious! I used to visit Paul’s almost every day when I studied abroad in Paris. They had the most irresistible lunch set – a crusty baguette sandwich and a different pie or dessert option every day. I discovered rhubarb pie that summer mhmmm.
If you see a Pauls in Paris (it’s a chain), pop in for a quick snack. For my other food recommendations, please visit my Paris Museum Guide.
