Greg: You must be thinking of something else. This is a real swanky dept. store with a huge dome. It's kind of like a Harrods with a big gourmet food section.
I was at the Galeries Lafayette a while back and was overwhelmed by all the choices; for some reason this store really stresses me out; I missed the spices though! I much prefer the Bon Marché, have you been?
Oh, please. Another blogger sitting around contemplating her navel orange? I feel your pain, so I’ll be pithy. My obsession needs a home. Where it can share recipes for a flexitarian diet, exhibit original photos and serve up tongue-in-cheek mouthfuls on the topics du jour. Whether praising a pea or appraising the planet, this writer, traveler and culinary inquisitor is bringing it all to the table. Stop rolling your eyes. You’re going to eat this stuff up.
Ah. Galeries Lafayette. Reminds me a bit of the Ferry Building in SF, right? Am I thinking of the right place? GREG

Joumana: I walked by Bon Marché and it was closed, so I missed out! I used to like to eat at the Monoprix dept. store. Do you remember that?
ReplyDeleteYou're bringing back good memories for many. Gorgeous place and good finds.
