Chocolat: Jean-Paul Hevin


L’amour. This is my favorite chocolate shop so far. It was love at first site when I saw the chocolate high heel shoe in the window and it’s been a wild affair ever since. Our first night, I bought a bag of assorted chocolat noir bon bons and started walking to the metro. It was too beautiful out to go underground so I decided to continue walking though the Tuileries to the next stop. It was about tusk so I had to sneak in to the Tuileries since it closes early before April. I walked to the reflecting pond at the Concorde. Outside of the park was the crazy circling of cars and headlights, but around the calm reflecting pond was chairs and a few people resting. I climbed up the stairs to overlook Concorde and it was literally the most beautiful view of Paris that I could imagine. All of the buildings were lit up, the sky was dark, and the headlights were creating a flow of lights. I sat and enjoyed my chocolats, which were DELICIOUS and watched Paris. I saw the Champs Elyese, Arc de Triomphe, Grand Palais, Le Seine, Tuiliers, and the Louvre. I finished my chocolats and headed across the Seine to the metro. I even caught a glimpse of Notre Dame at night, Musee d’Orsay, National Assemblee, Invalides, and Le Tour Eiffel. It was such a lovely evening that I think Jean-Paul and I will make it a regular event, alas he has some pastries that looked delicious!

Paris, Je t'aime!
