The Experience

“You have to try this one,” our guide grinned, holding out a tiny, glossy chocolate that looked almost too perfect to eat. I hesitated (I always do — what if it’s too rich?), but the smell was all roasted cocoa and something floral. We’d only been walking Montmartre for maybe twenty minutes, but already my hands were sticky from viennoiserie crumbs and I’d lost count of how many times I’d said “just a bite.” The cobblestones felt uneven under my sneakers, and there was music somewhere drifting out of an open window — accordion, maybe? Hard to tell with all the street noise.

We stopped near Sacré-Cœur Basilica for photos — not right up close, but at this spot where you get that classic Paris view. Our guide (her name was Camille) told us about the artists who used to hang out here, sketching or just arguing over coffee. She pointed out a little bakery tucked behind a blue awning; apparently their macarons are famous in Paris, which is saying something. I tried to say “macaron” like she did but mostly just made her laugh. There was powdered sugar on my sleeve for the rest of the day.

The last stop was right by Moulin Rouge — bright lights even in daylight, people posing for selfies everywhere. My favorite tasting wasn’t even planned: Camille pulled out her “secret pick,” some flaky pastry filled with hazelnut cream that tasted like childhood birthdays. I didn’t expect to feel so at home eating pastries on a busy Paris street with strangers, but here we are. Still think about that hazelnut thing sometimes when I’m hungry late at night.
