		<title>Café Gourmand</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
There is a new fashion in restaurants in Paris that I cannot get enough of: it&#8217;s called a café gourmand. We all know that having a dessert after a big steak could be viewed as slightly indulgent, so to get around any guilt that a huge slice of cake might entail, the Parisians have come [...]]]></description>

		<title>Alice à Paris</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here is yet another gem of a boutique/brand for boys and girls that is a great representation of French children&#8217;s clothing style. In this case, without a hefty price tag attached to it!
The brand is called Alice à Paris and has three shops around Paris (funny that, no?).  There isn&#8217;t a huge selection, but each piece [...]]]></description>

		<title>Le Bonbon au Palais</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am one of those rare people who doesn&#8217;t like sweets and chocolate  (unlike Courtney, who has a chocolate box full of fabulous looking  chocolates which comes out after every dinner).  It has never occurred  to me to wander down the sweet aisle in a supermarket&#8230; but my  daughters are very, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Kids and the City</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If you have any spare time between the 3rd and 5th of June and happen to be in Paris, do check out the children&#8217;s fair &#8220;Kids in the City&#8221; on rue Francs Bourgeois in the 3rd. The fair was put together by the lovely Estelle who also runs Nordinary &#8212; one of my favourite webshops [...]]]></description>

		<title>Wowo</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Since the arrival of the Bonton &#8220;Mega&#8221; Store on boulevard Beaumarchais, the &#8220;North Marais&#8221; in the 3rd (around Rue Vielle Du Temple and Rue de Bretagne) has become a very dangerous place for parents (specifically mothers) to visit. One beautiful little children&#8217;s boutique is opening up one after the other.
One of my favourite new arrivals [...]]]></description>

		<title>Parc de Belleville</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Parc de Belleville used to be just a normal city park, nothing to write home about. But thanks to strict safety laws, the play area in the park had to be closed down and it re-opened last year with a completely new play structure that is worth a visit, especially if you have boys [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Argonaute</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A girlfriend of mine came to visit us in Paris with her 2 boys who were 8 and 10. I was at a complete loss on how to entertain them. Playing with my girls entertained them mildly,  but when their mother and I suggested hitting the shops we had a bit of a mutiny on [...]]]></description>

		<title>Butte de Chaumont</title>
		<description><![CDATA[FINALLY we have been having a few days of sunny weather here in Paris.  And as we live in a typical Parisian apartment with no outdoor space, the main thing I have been yearning for is a spot of grass I can plop myself and my 2 girls on to enjoy some rays of sunshine.
Finding [...]]]></description>

		<title>Le Petit Bazar</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In an arrondissement far, far away from my usual stomping ground, I stumbled upon a great little place: Le Petit Bazar.
It&#8217;s a shop, a tea room, a space for ateliers and courses &#8212; a concept dreamed up by two friends&#8230; These girls decided to change careers and dedicate themselves to something both were passionate about: [...]]]></description>

		<title>Brocantes Popincourt</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Just around the corner from me is a little collection of about 8-10 little brocantes shops which, surprisingly, not that many people know about&#8230; and they are fabulous. I think about 90 per cent of all the furniture I have bought in recent years comes from there. Each shop is owned by someone different, with [...]]]></description>

		<title>Rue Keller</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If you are ever in the 11th arrondissement in Paris,  rue Keller is a great street to visit for a little bit of off-the-beaten-track retail therapy. is lined with loads of cute autonomous boutiques, reasonably priced lively restaurants and bars, and little art galleries.
Anne Willi, the adult and children&#8217;s clothes designer, has her flagship on [...]]]></description>

Petit Pan specializes in  vintage furniture and old-style fabrics which have been out of print for generations. Their articles are produced in China by ethical companies using traditional methods, [...]]]></description>

		<title>New Bonton store</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It is hard to believe but Merci, one of Paris&#8217; most fashionable concept stores has been out-trumped by a kid&#8217;s store.  Just a stone&#8217;s throw away from Merci on the corner where the boulevard Beaumarchais turns into the boulevard Filles du Calvaire, Bonton has opened up a 800 M² new flagship shop.  It [...]]]></description>

		<title>Getting around in Paris</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am often asked about transportation around Paris. The city is actually relatively small compared to LA or London (relative is an important part of this sentence), so my favourite way of getting around is on foot. It is the perfect way to discover the city&#8230; if you have the time.
If not, here are some [...]]]></description>

		<title>Antoine et Lili</title>

They can be found along the canal St Martin, an area which, for a long time now, has been [...]]]></description>
