Giacometti Institute
My favorite artist foundation. It’s a truly beautiful space dedicated to Giacometti's works, with well-curated exhibitions and an incredible book archive.

CASA LOEWE Montaigne · Paris
CASA LOEWE Montaigne
LOEWE’s museum-like store, located on the most prestigious shopping avenue in Paris: Avenue Montaigne. A visit here is a unique experience as you can see up close the brand’s design aesthetic and an incredible art collection, while also exploring their current fashions and accessories.

Le Maquis · Paris
Le Maquis
One of my favorite date night spots in Paris—it never disappoints. A fixed menu with everything you could possibly want, plus classic French bistro interiors and lots of charm.

Marché aux puces de Saint-Ouen · Paris
Marché aux puces de Saint-Ouen
It's always lovely to visit this flea market, but for some reason, it's even better in the fall. Make sure to visit the stands Galerie Kopek and Anti Matiere Intérieur, as well as the nearby Avenue Bookstore.
Maison Européenne de la Photographie
Unlike other massive exhibition centers in Paris, Maison Européenne de la Photographie is intimate and has some of the best photography exhibitions. Pro tip: don't forget to check out the library on the lower level. It has incredible architecture and a collection of really rare photography books to browse.

Dreamin' Man · Paris
Dreamin' Man
Everyone’s favorite coffee shop—for good reason. It's forever the best in the game and the coziest meeting point.

Ateliers-musée Chana Orloff · Paris
Ateliers-musée Chana Orloff
Very under the radar, but one of my personal favorites. Here you can discover works by Chana Orloff in the building where she lived and worked for many years. It’s also near some very special modernist buildings from the 1920s that housed other artists at the time.

Librairie Chanut · Paris
Librairie Chanut
I love visiting here when in the neighborhood. It has a great selection of vintage books and the cutest storefront.

Charvet · Paris
Charvet
To me, Charvet is just as essential to Paris as the Louvre. A wonderful institution for bespoke shirts, ties, slippers, and more. Ask to visit the floor where they have the bespoke shirt atelier with all the fabrics.

Harry's New York Bar · Paris
Harry’s New York Bar
A special bar that will never be topped. Chic wood counters, tasty hot dogs, and great martinis and Bloody Marys, or whatever your go-to cocktail is.

A La Renaissance · Paris
À La Renaissance
A classic institution that has recently reopened with reinspired interiors and an updated menu (both of which nod to the original). Expect comfort food and a great wine list. This is my current favorite lunch spot.

NOTRE DAME Music Bar · Paris
NOTRE DAME Music Bar
A wonderful listening bar with the best vinyls, Japanese ambiance, and tasty small plates.
Compagnie Française des Poivres et des Épices
My go-to place to stock up on salt and pepper for my home, but they also make great gifts! Try the poivre vert givré au sel.

Le Baratin · Paris
Le Baratin
A truly remarkable institution and one of the best for classic French cuisine in Paris. Humble service, excellent food and wine. Advance reservations needed.

Chez Omar · Paris
Chez Omar
Omar satisfies your couscous cravings in the chicest way possible. It has one of the most beautiful dining rooms in Paris, a familial feel, and delicious offerings.
