Museé de Cluny known as National Museum of the Middle Ages is a museum of arts and crafts from the Middle Ages, including the Hôtel de Cluny, which houses the collection, and the adjoining Thermes de Cluny ancient thermal baths. We came here to see the famous “Lady and the Unicorn” wall-hanging tapestry. It is one of six tapestries, woven in around 1500, representing the five senses against a detailed red background. They are marvelous and mysterious: you have to see them with your own eyes! The museum reopened this year after many years of renovation and it is splendid! ❤️🇫🇷 #paris #verytroubledchild #savannabag #medievalart #medieval

When in Paris, go to Chez Georges on Rue du Mail. This legendary venue has been a Parisian institution since decades. Its flawless traditional cuisine and service have made this one of Paris’ most beloved brasseries. We enjoyed their topinambur soup, sautéed mushrooms, baked salmon and lentils, but their menu is vast and contains everything 😁🇫🇷❤️ #paris #verytroubledchild #cuisinefrançaise

Documenting our yearly pilgrimage to La Fontaine de Mars in Paris 😁 The iconic red checkered tablecloths, delicious food: no wonder so many people love this place (reccomend booking in advance) 🇫🇷 Fresh oysters, pate de canard or their divine cassoulet : whatever we order, we are always enjoying food, drinks and atmosphere at this historical restaurant. 🇫🇷 #verytroubledchild #paris #fontainedemars #cuisinefrançaise

Museum of Hunting and Nature can be described as Deyrolle (famous taxidermy shop on Rue du Bac) on steroids. The Museum, founded in 1967 by wealthy industrialists François and Jacqueline Sommer is a must-see when in Paris. Recently renovated and curated with a nod to the wunderkammers of old, each room features a wooden cabinet dedicated to a different hunted animal. Concealed in the cabinet drawers are bronze casts of the animal’s footprints and turds, depictions of the animal in its natural habitat, and a poem as a tribute to the animal.

When in Paris we make three non- French culinary exceptions: one is Middle Eastern cuisine, second is pizza at one of our trusty Parisian pizzerias, and third is burger at Ralph’s Restaurant in Saint Germain. We always go with Santa Fe & Ralph’s burgers, and we enjoyed their take on the classic Spritz! It’s always fun to dine here ❤️ #paris #verytroubledchild

Finally reached the Bibliotheque Nationale de France to see some amazing artifacts including the Grand Cammeo de France of 23 AD, which is one of most important works of art of the Roman era which has reached our age. The National Library is another fantastic place to see. Unmissable visit! #bnfrichelieu #romanartifacts #verytroubledchild #richelieu #galeriemazarine #paris #france #parisfrance #sardonix

Weekend feast at Parisian @aux_lyonnais 🇫🇷 This bistro founded in 1890 has a splendid decor, and serves delicious cuisine: porcini pie and breast of Venus in lobster sauce were perfectly executed and served in stunning silverware. The staff was the kindest and we will be back to this special place! 🇫🇷👍 #paris #verytroubledchild #cuisinefrançaise #parisrestaurant
