Begin at rue St.-Dominique where it intersects with avenue de la Bourdonnais and avenue Rapp several blocks up from the metro stop École Militaire. Go over the tour first, before you set out, and think about reserving ahead for lunch or dinner at one of the many fine restaurants we suggest. This is a wonderful afternoon tour after seeing the Eiffel Tower in the morning. Rue St. Dominique 1. Comptoirs Richard at 145 rue St. Dominique (01 53 59 99 18) is a well stocked tea and coffee store where you can find some nice gifts such as Eiffel Tower espresso cups, colored sugars and Paris cardboard keepsake boxes (there are several other locations in Paris). 2. Grégory Renard’s shop, at 120, rue St.Dominique, is worth a stop for world-class artisanal chocolates and macarons. Rue St. Dominique has one of our favorite bistros in Paris, 3. La Fontaine de Mars at 129 rue St. Dominique (01 47 05 46 44). This is the classic redtableclothed bistro serving a good Confit de Canard (crispy duck leg) and boasting friendly service. Out of certain windows here you can see the Eiffel Tower sparkle at night. President Obama has dined here. In general, Chef Christian Constant owns this area, boasting not 1 but 4 restaurants. We like the more relaxed 3b. Café Constant at 139 rue St. Dominique (01 47 53 73 34) or 4. Les Cocottes at 135 rue St. Dominique (no reservations required at Les Cocottes). 2010 Inspire Partners, LLC and Girls’ Guide to Paris. All Rights Reserved cont’d Across from Les Cocottes at No. 108 is 5. L’Esprit du Sud-Ouest, which would be a good place to stop if you have a rugby fan in the family. 6. 7 Famille, at 114, rue St.-Dominique (01 45 51 73 25), is a small shop that has some nice gifts, particularly for teenage girls, and a few pieces of clothing. We like its selection of Swildens tees. 7. The pharmacy near the corner of St.Dominique and rue Sedillot is a good place to stock up on Darphin creams or La Roche-Posay sunscreen. 8. Les Petites, at 115, rue St.Dominique, is wonderful for colorful prints and cashmeres. Note the 9. St. Pierre du Gros Caillou church, at No. 92, which was built in the 1800s, and whose chapel was built in the 1700s. Not particularly old by Parisian standards, but a charming neighborhood church nonetheless. Not usually open to the public. You can turn down rue Cler and head south if you wish, walking a block to get to the 10. Rue Cler market street, or wait until later so you can pick up some fresh picnic ingredients or appetizers on the way home. 11. Venise Collection, at No. 109, rue St. Dominique, is a shoe store that sells a well-selected assortment of heels and flats by Sonia Rykiel, Givenchy and Chloe. 12. Jacadi, the renowned children’s fashion store, is at No. 107. 13. Truffes Folies is an épicerie and restaurant located just off rue St.-Dominique at 37, rue Malar (01 44 18 05 41). If you are a truffle fan, this is an essential stop. 14. Bar du Central, at 99, rue St.-Dominique, is a good place stop for un verre or a coffee. 15. Gerard Darel, at No. 78, is a solid French brand with fashionable finds often available in larger sizes, which is completely abnormal in Paris. A favorite of Susan Sarandon and Meryl Streep since 1973. 2 4 Shop Rue St. Dominique and Grenelle in the 7th One of our favorite stores in Paris is at 78 rue St. Dominique, 16. Comptoir des Cotonniers, for affordable chic Parisian looks. The always chic 17. Bérénice, at number 91, is a fashion find. 18. Kooples is a trendy brand at 89, rue St.Dominique, where you can find younger “downtown” looks often in black, white or gray. 19. Lemoine, at No. 74, is a cute little chocolate, nougat and macaron shop, in case you haven’t indulged yet. It’s known for its cannelés, which are tiny cakes from the Bordeaux region. Now, turn up rue Jean Nicot for several special stores. At 22 rue Jean-Nicot (01 45 50 43 54), you’ll find one of the great florists in a town full of florists, 20. Eric Chauvin. Next door, 21. Stéphane Secco, whose pain au chocolat was voted the best in Paris, can be found at 20 rue Jean-Nicot (01 43 17 35 20). The shop is worth a look even if you aren’t hungry. 22. Bellota-Bellota, at 18, rue Jean Nicot, is jamón (ham) heaven and a sublime little Spanish épicerie and café—if you feel a little Basque coming on, stop in here. Return to rue St.-Dominique and turn left. 23. Karl Marc, at 68, rue St.-Dominique, is a lovely new designer on the rue. 24. The Tome Dom bookstore, at No. 81, is good for books about Paris and travel, and for cookbooks and comics. Check out 25. BA&SH, at No. 81, for affordably chic fashion. Turn right on rue de la Comète and head toward rue de Grenelle. Rue de Grenelle At 10, rue de la Comète, you’ll notice a little bonsai store that you should enter. Not only does 26. Bonsaï Rémy Samson have impressive bonsai and lovely gardening books, but in the back garden you’ll find a small paradise of Japanese Zen plantings. An oasis of calm beauty. 2010 Inspire Partners, LLC and Girls’ Guide to Paris. All Rights Reserved cont’d Note the beautiful Beaux Arts and Art Nouveau architecture of some of the buildings on rue de Grenelle as you enter this street and make a right. Take your first right off rue de Grenelle and turn right back up rue Amélie to check out the handmade-leather purse store, 27. Catherine Loiret, at 21 bis, rue Amélie. These ingenious designs are right for any fashion maven (09 53 65 10 40). As long as you are on rue Amélie, you might want to pop into No. 20, 28. Mayaro, which has some interesting items for the French home. On this same street is a new, very modern hotel, which has reasonable rates beginning at 165 euros, for your return trip to Paris: 29. 7 Eiffel, at 17 bis, rue Amélie (01 45 55 10 01). Return to rue de Grenelle and turn right. Notice the 30. exquisite door handles at No. 151, from the Art Nouveau era. The corn-andlizard handles warrant a photo. Continue on down the rue until you reach No. 155, where you’ll find 31. Numaé for adorable baby clothes if you have an infant to buy for (01 47 05 16 96). When you reach rue Cler, you might want to turn to your left and peruse this lovely 32. market street. Selections here are good for picnics or making a meal in your rented apartment. 33. Petit Bateau, which you can find in the US, is at the corner of rue de Grenelle and rue Cler, at 186, rue de Grenelle, if you need to stock up on the T-shirts that everyone loves and kids’ pj’s. If you must have your American food fix (think Pop-Tarts), go to 34. The Real McCoy store and restaurant at 194 rue de Grenelle (01 45 56 98 62). As you reach avenue Bosquet, turn right. Here you will find 35. La Palferine, at No. 43, 3 5 Shop Rue St. Dominique and Grenelle in the 7th cont’d which is an antiques shop that’s worth walking into. 15. 78 rue St. Dominique – Gerard Darel Turn around and head south to return to the metro stop Ecole Militaire. If you still have some energy, you can end your day on avenue Rapp. Return to St. Dominique and turn left toward Ave de la Boudonnais and turn right when you reach avenue Rapp. 16. 78 rue St. Dominique – Comptoir dse Cotonniers Notice the gorgeous Art Nouveau building at 36. 29, avenue Rapp, which is across from 37. Sancerre, at No. 22 (01 45 51 75 91), a solid wine bar where you can enjoy oysters and old-fashioned ambience, and of course a glass of Sancerre.
