I spent a glorious week in Paris and the food was to die for. As I’m typing this, I’m reminded of the night that I stood at Trocadero eating a warm, thin, perfectly-browned, chocolate Nutella covered crepe while the lights of the Eiffel Tower twinkled in the distance. I stood on line for 20 minutes at a food truck for that crepe! It was worth the wait! Unfortunately, I wasn’t in Paris long enough to sample all the deliciousness that it has to offer. So I asked 7 amazing bloggers to share their top tips for finding the best food to eat in Paris.

Hopefully, they will inspire you to visit Paris and “get your eat on”.
