Paris, it's perfect in every way. Really. It's beautiful. It's delicious. It's diverse and it never ends. But there's one thing about Paris that's simply unforgivable. The coffee, of course.
It's atrocious. It's a shame for such a fine culinary culture. A shame for humanity in general. I discovered that for proper coffee that's free of rat poison, you have to work hard. And for good coffee, I'm willing to work hard. I sampled a lot of coffee. Most of it was abandoned after a sip... and when I was no longer happy with my money, I drank it anyway. Don't worry about me, I found something to do during coffee time. For example, sitting in a cafe, which is actually a positive experience, and basking in memories, about how my outstanding Parisian grandparents had sugar cubes at home. How I loved putting the edge of the cube in the drink and then watching how the cube slowly changed color, as the color level slowly rose. Then being satisfied with how the cube crumbled between my two fingers. Slowly turning into sand.
This fun will always come with me on my visits to Paris. When the sugar cubes run out, you can look around. This Paris After all. We have to. Here in that very cafe, there was a lookout for this box. We really fell in love with each other. She was exactly like me. Very yellow, full of nonsense, fond of graffiti in gibberish, bad at mingling. Me in short.
What I loved most was that while I was still sipping my horrible coffee, I could see that everyone who passed by the box (mine!!) fit the frame perfectly.
Is there any coffee in Paris worth drinking?
After a lot of bad coffee that almost made me think that in a hundred years, maybe I should think about quitting coffee, because really, what's going on?! Oh, my tortured soul was saved!!
It turns out that a relative of mine, whom I have only met once in history, has a gluten-free patisserie called Chambelland in Paris. If it weren’t for a really nice-sounding cousin, I wouldn’t have thought of going there. Because if you really don’t have to eat gluten-free, then why should I? Turns out, I was terribly wrong!! Thanks to Bandod, who turned out to be a lovely man!! I discovered:
A- Excellent coffee!!!
B - Gluten-free patisserie/boulangerie can also be very tasty!!
C- I have a very cute wanderer in Paris!
D- If you go to wonderful places (which there are in such wanderings), you also leave with a bag full of locally produced breads and cakes and feel on top of the world. (Lemon tart… sin from heaven).
Here are the details of the place. The atmosphere is charming, by the way, and you can eat there.

Another excellent coffee in Paris
The charming Nathaniel also equipped Hunter with a list of places where you can drink excellent coffee, and thus this suffering came to an end. The Parisian Café.
The next day, because we really had to, we went out to sample a coffee from Nathaniel's list. The closest, considering this is Paris of course, was a coffee Lilly and the valley . A tiny, sweet cafe. A bit Florentine like that. A long bench along the wall and a few individual tables along it. A ceiling covered in green plastic plants. And a toilet with a fairy-tale door (life is short. eat dessert).
The coffee is strong and very tasty. No cyanide residue. Highly recommended… It turns out they have several stores. Which increases the possibility of encountering a good coffee in Paris. The easiest way is to go to their website.
Excellent coffee day
