    Going to Angelina was in my list in our 2020 trip to Paris, but due to Covid we had to cancel our trip. I have been to Paris in 2015 and oddly enough I passed Angelina so many times because our hotel was just around the corner. Hopfully in 2022 I will be in Paris and will go to Angelina.

    That whole place of Angelina is all about decadence. From the one pastry to the decor inside & everything else, it looks like a 5-star place. That would be So much fun to see & just spend a little bit of time in there, taking in the artwork everywhere & all. That would be just amazing. The liquid chocolate looks like it would equally be a "Must-Try" type of thing while there in that restaurant & even Paris in general.

    Did you know the Mont-Blanc pastry is actually very popular in Japan and can be bought at every conbini (convenience store)?
    The topping is made out of sweetened chestnut and the inner part is usually made out of soft meringues.
    While you are in Paris I would highly recommend visiting the Pére Lachaise cemetery.....a bit of a unusual recommendation, but you will find an ocean of quit in the middle of the city and there are loads of very beautiful grave monument and statues.
    Thank you for this awesome video!

    • @EileenAldis
      @EileenAldis  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I actually only just heard that from someone else after seeing our video who said she first tried a Mont-Blanc in Japan! Despite spending A LOT of quality time in convenience stores there (sadly, pre-TH-cam) I don't remember seeing them there. But next time I'm definitely going to look for them specifically. I don't think visiting cemeteries is strange at all. They're very peaceful and we visit them often when travelling. Always learn a lot and interesting to see the history too, of course. Thanks for the suggestion!
