Galeries Lafayette on Boulevard Haussmann is one of our regular stops...not that we actually shop there, except for souvenirs, gadgets, and travel stuff...but for the architecture, the glorious rotunda, and the views from the terrace. This time, in addition to the above, we also visited the gourmet epicerie, which will now become our major food supply stop in Paris...fabulous selection of everything and not much more expensive than the Monoprix...and definitely superior to the Grande Epicerie across the river.

One of our favorite places! We were there at Christmas in 2019 and the tree was under the great dome and was magnificent. We love the food there, too. A great place to shop. Yum!
