After settling into our room we ventured round the corner to Saint Honore for lunch and the after-lunch window shopping that is usually complementary to such meals laden with butter, truffle oil, or foie.
When I go to France I usually have a checklist of food that I must eat, and this was it:
Escargot; duck; lamb or rabbit; seasonal foods such as mushrooms, white asparagus or truffle; foie gras; artisanal cheeses; souffle; eclairs; macarons; crepes.
We stopped in a bistro along the way, Le Castiglione. You can always tell if its good if there are a lot of people eating there.
Surveying their menu, I was attracted to the ceps in a dish- so I had to order it.
excited to shop!
Bea, Kat, me and Manda

Kat's special catch of the day
So, macaron: check. scargot: check. duck: check. Seasonal food: cep!
Now onto window shopping at Chanel, Hermes, Longchamp...etc etc etc.
