Travelogue: Paris en noir

A spontaneous weekend getaway to Paris last month. 
No shopping, despite living literally next to Champs-Élyseés.
No tourist attractions, wanted a casual and relaxed trip, hence no pressure to wake up at 7am. 
And the long queue outside Notre Dame had affirmed the decision.
Only food, and more food.
This is how life should be. Even if it was just for 3 days.

Noir is Paris. Noir is love.



Lunch at Antoine, michelin Parisian gastronomy across the street that overlooks the Eiffel.
The best seafood one could probably get.
Say hi to my first favourite restaurant in Paris.



Walk and keep walking. London, you've trained me well.


Dinner at Le Kong, Japanese French fusion sky bar restaurant in the city.
Highlights of the night were probably the sight of Louis Vuitton and finding Pierre Hermé on the dessert menu, both which I found fed me more than the food (taste wise) And those geisha's heads that were all over the place killed my appetite.



Late night stroll at the Louvre,

and walked on quiet streets as Paris fell asleep


Finally, the last morning

What about some snails for breakfast?



Goodbye for now Paris. Till we meet again.
