The authors traversed the streets of the capital to bring together the mix of traditional and exotic flavors, organic and fusion trends that embody Parisian delicacies--both sweet and savory. Sarramon's photographs present a feast for both eyes and stomach; from the Cakes de Bertrand, served in a romantic old-world interior, to the Maison des 8 Thes, with its expensive teas and lavish decor. The shops, often created by a great chef or famous name in French gastronomy, may include a take-out counter of catered fare for a no-fuss feast at home.

From the most traditional establishments to the hottest new addresses, an indispensable address book completes the selection to provide the epicurean visitor with satisfaction in every quarter of the capital. Rich with ideas for eating well, Gourmet Shops of Paris is the ultimate indulgence!
