France

Paris

Wine caves, market stalls, and no clichés.

Irene Koo, editor

A note from the editor

Classic wicker chair bistros, patisseries luring you in with buttery croissants, and French fine dining await in the most romantic city in the world. What would be unromantic is stumbling into a tourist trap unaware. That’s why I interviewed local insiders on where they hang out with family and friends, distilled into our guide with no snootiness.
