Museums, galleries and monuments

• Musée de l'Orangerie
• Musée d'Orsay
• Centre Georges Pompidou (for the view and the room about Fauvism)
• Musée national de Moyen Âge

Shops

• Marché Aligre (everyone keeps going on about it because it is ACTUALLY REALLY GOOD)
• La Grande Epicerie
• Guerrisol (I always find something in the Aligre branch, and I like the one at Place d'Italie too)
• Eileen on Rue Monge (a big clusterfuck of cheap clothes in piles a.k.a. heaven, also a puli dog lives there)
• HEMA (I know this doesn't count really but they don't have in in the UK and it's SO CHEAP)
• Maison Georges Larnicol on the Boulevard Saint-Germain (for bergamot macarons to save in your bag until you find the perfect square, and then subsequently to eat in the sunshine)

Food and drink

• Hoa Hung (in Belleville) for a banh mi; I've tried a vast number of banh mi places and this is the best
• Bouillon Chartier (mais bien sûr)
• Raviolis Chinois Nord-Est near Les Halles
• Boulangerie Murciano on Rue des Rosiers (for the boules de miel. There's a good vintage shop nearby as well although I've forgotten what it's called)
• Creperie Oroyona (€5.50 for 2 crepes and a beer or cider!!)
• Les Fontaines near Les Halles
• The bars on Rue du Pot de Fer near Place Monge (and indeed on Rue Mouffetard)
• Anticafé has a good food selection and does good hot chocolate and would be a great place to work if I hadn't essentially finished all my planning for the year

Walks

• A lovely sort of Montmartre-for-dummies walk
• The Marais (and the Haut-Marais in particular) will always be a nice place to go on a walk, pressing your nose up against the windows of all the fancy concept stores you can't afford.
