Angelina, Paris, France -- April 12…read more Our family of four with kids ages 9 and 10 stopped here for lunch after visiting the Louvre, drawn in by its reputation for having the best hot chocolate in the world. We were looking for a place to relax and refuel, and the experience felt a bit mixed overall. Arrival and First Impressions The space is elegant with classic Parisian charm. The line moved quickly, and we were seated with a great view of the dining room. It felt refined but still comfortable. The Highlights The famous hot chocolate lived up to expectations, thick, rich, and almost more like a dessert than a drink. We also had French onion soup and an éclair, both of which were very good. The pastries were clearly well made and thoughtfully prepared. The kids had chicken tenders, which they enjoyed, even though the tomato sauce was a bit different from what they expected. The Challenges The biggest drawback was the price. The meal felt expensive for what we ordered, coming in at €154 for a fairly simple lunch. Service felt slightly rushed as they moved tables along quickly. Final Thoughts We would likely return if we were nearby and specifically craving the hot chocolate again. It is a classic Paris stop and worth trying once, but the value may not justify going out of your way unless that signature experience is high on your list.

So Angelina's fine. For me, it's a bit hyped up. My sister, loved it. She even bought their…read moreprepackaged bottle of hot chocolate to take home. This hot chocolate is decadent. It really tastes like melted chocolate with a bit of milk mixed in to make it more drinkable. We went at a bit of an off time, late morning and it wasn't overly busy. We saw our server once and I couldn't recall who he was when it came time to get the bill. I asked a hostess walking by for our check and she told me to ask our server while walking away. We were able to flag another server down eventually but the whole process just took too long. The tables for four have chairs that don't quite tuck in causing for a bit awkward seating. If you like really thick hot chocolate, give it a try but otherwise ok to miss this one. Plenty of good hot chocolate throughout the city.

Now, back home, we are missing this bakery a lot.

They have fresh bread, sweet and savory pastries, quiche and sandwiches. The staff is very friendly and speaks English. There's lots of locals getting breakfast so I knew it was a good choice. I got two quiches, one Lorraine and one broccoli and salmon, on my first visit. I went back for a ham and cheese one the next day. They heat it up for you if you ask. It's in the microwave so the heat isn't very even but it's still good. The crust is crispy and like a pie crust. The inside is tender and pudding-like. Very flavorful on all the varieties.

I had just finished my time at the Eiffel tower and walked over to this restaurant for a drink and a snack. I was seated immediately, waiting for the rest of my party. The staff were incredibly patient, allowing me to stay for the fifteen-ish minutes it took for my family to arrive. We, of course, ordered the hot chocolate topped with cream. It was incredibly rich, which was the draw. It was required that we each ordered our own teapot, which provided about two and a half cups of hot chocolate. This was a bit excessive, as the drink was heavy and I could only stomach a cup. I did wish the restaurant allowed us to split the pot amongst our table. Nonetheless, I enjoy dining at Carette and returned on my second Paris trip with my husband. Anyone visiting for the first time should try their thick hot chocolate at least once.

Upon entering the bakery, I was greeted by the aroma of butter and the sight of neat rows of fresh pastries. I really wanted to try one of everything, but I was determined to try the pain au chocolat, a personal favorite. Le Grenier a Pain's pain au chocolat was much larger and heartier than others I've tried yet retained its buttery-flakiness without feeling too heavy. I really enjoyed the pillowy texture of the pain au chocolat, which included a generous amount of chocolate folded inside. Paired with a cafe au lait, I was in heaven. The bakery is small yet inviting, and there was no seating indoors or outdoors. While I was hoping to enjoy my pastry on-the-go, it started pouring outside, so I was forced to huddle underneath the awning while I consumed my pain au chocolat. While I'd definitley come back for another pain au chocolat, I would also want to sample their savory pastries on my next visit.

Petit endroit pour déjeuner qui a été recommander vivement…read more Le droit est très petit, ce qui permet un ambiance plus relaxe et détendu. Situés dans un des passage de Paris, cela réduit encore plus le bruit. Il y a une petite terrasse à l'extérieur. Le service est très courtois et gentil. Le menu est tout de même petit. Plusieurs pâtisseries sont disponible dans le comptoir que l'ont peu amener ou manger sur place. J'ai prit le menu qui inclus des oeufs brouillé. Le tout viens avec un pain au chocolat ou croissant, chocolat chaud ou café, les oeufs et un pain. J'ai prit un extra pour le bacon. J'ai trouvé le pain sec et sans goût, une chance qu'il y avait beurre (congelé) et de la confiture qui était bonne. Le pain au chocolat était OK. Le chocolat chaud était un chocolat de machine lavazza donc rien d'exceptionnel. Les oeufs quant à oeufs sont un hit and miss. Ce ne sont pas des oeufs pour tous le monde. Je crois qu'ils mettent trop de lait ou de crème et cela les rends très liquides. C'était passable. Je dois dire que le plus surprenant fut le prix final. Disons que pour ce prix là, je m'attendais à beaucoup mieux. Pas un mauvais endroit certain, d'ailleurs les multiples pâtisseries semble vraiment bonne et j'en prendrais sûrement en passant devant. Mais je ne reprendrai pas le menu déjeuner, beaucoup trop cher pour ce que c'est.

We sat on the second floor but there is seating in the passage way as well. They do have wine in addition to coffee, hot chocolate, and tea. We tried the pistachio tart, the acrulier (like a fancier Ferrero rocher) and Kalingo (a chocolate cake). I had the gunpowder green tea while my sister had the hot chocolate. I honestly liked their hot chocolate more than the one at Angelina. It was rich but not chalky and the perfect amount of sweetness. The pistachio tart was the best one we've ever had and revived our spirits after a long day of walking. You pay downstairs and credit cards are accepted.
