Hot chocolate and macarons at Ladurée - on a date!


By now you all must know my opinion of Frenchmen. I don't take anything back and I'm still quite sure that I will never understand their way of thinking. But what I said about Paris being the best city for dating is also so true. Okay, the Frenchmen don't get the idea of casual dating but when they decide to be on their best behavior, they really know how to do that and the cliché of romantic French gentlemen seems almost real. 

I hadn't been on a date for over a month but this week I decided to go out with this guy I had been talking to and who seemed really nice. This will definitely be on the list "my favorite dates in Paris", that I shared with you. The sweetest, most adorable first date ever: this guy took me to the Ladurée café at Champs Elysées! I had a hot chocolate and he took a milkshake and we shared some macarons, how cute is that? The café was classy like Ladurée is (and full of tourists) but really cozy and I spent a lovely evening. In my anti-valentine's post I said that it's hard to find true love and lasting relationships in Paris, that after a dream date all that's left is sweet memories and nothing more. But you know what, this time I was so amazed and pleasantly surprised that I don't even care. But let's hope for the best. ;)

Here's some pics!
