Yesterday when we left the Stein Family exhibition at the Grand Palais we noticed they'd already set up the Christmas market on Champs Elysées. This is the largest Christmas market in Paris, and today it was in full swing. It consists of small wood chalets that sell products and yummy treats from various regions of France. Even Spanish chorizo, which we enjoyed along with a tarte flambée d'Alsace and the tartiflette, a dish from the Haute Savoie region that's made with potatoes, reblochon cheese, cream, and bacon. And hot wine, of course.
The snow is fake but every thing else is very authentic. They also have a few attractions for the kids including a small ice skating rink. On the way home we stopped for a picture at Pizza Pino; can't wait to see those trees lit up at night.
