TOP 5 UNIQUE SOUVENIRS TO BRING HOME FROM PARIS (...and where to buy them!)

[@user-ch9if6px6r]

I always go to cooking stores in La Halle and buy made in France items. All souvenirs have to be made in the country I'm visiting and not China. Grocery stores have the best chocolate and the bakeries have marshmallow baby Jesus in a manger for Christmas. My nieces were impressed. We bought Dior glass frames during the sale and had the scrip put in after getting home. Paris is always ahead of trends by two years.

Where can you find all souvenirs made in France? I will be in Paris next month. Thanks

[@user-ch9if6px6r]

@@jkd246 E. Dehillerin has the best cooking merch. The cookie cutters are even marked made in France. I buy wooden cooking utensils, smaller cutting boards and if checking luggage we have brought home their knifes. They are all marked with the store name/made in france.I've bought tart pans etc. I also go to the grocery and buy chocolate and spices. Herbs de Provence from France. Shakespeare and Company have great signed children's books from local authors if you have kids in the family. Sometimes museum shops have items not made in China.

TBH, I think the greatest thing one can treat oneself to in Paris is a baking class. I took a class and now make croissants, pain au chocolat, kougin Amman and pain aux raisins. My Parisien husband is incredibly happy on the weekends!!

[@Ariellelaparisienne]

TOTALLY ! ☺️ where did you take the class if you don’t mind me asking ?

[@PhDDimeKB]

Omg; I want to do this. All museums and operas and moulin rouge are booked so this will bed fun

Jean is a very good and steady cameraman. I should know - I married mine from Toronto (via Belfast). He was the first cameraman at CityPulse with Gordon Martineau.

[@KateReilly-go6hn]

we appreciate you Jean!!

[@aporia25]

Thanks for sharing so many unique ideas for souvenirs from Paris! I didn't know you could bring cheese back to Canada, or that you could get it packed sous-vide - this is so helpful to know!

[@marthawilson4775]

Fantastic list! May I add one more? Marin Montagut, rue Madame. Whimsical, French-made, artsy store - perfect for unique gifts (for yourself - and others)! I go here every time I’m in Paris in the spring. Absolutely adore this place.

[@Ariellelaparisienne]

Ahhh I’ll have to check it out !! 🤩

[@junethiel632]

All those edibles look scrumptious!!! Good thing I cannot afford to travel anywhere anymore, I'd return from a visit to France a real fat person.....

[@nadiamurray2413]

Heading to Paris in a couple of weeks and really appreciate the lovely suggestions - so many great options. Merci à Jean for the great camera work!

[@michaellima6272]

Nice camera work in this video, Jean! Thank you for the suggestions, Arielle!

[@Katiediddance]

Arielle, I've said this many times before when leaving a comment on your videos, you are just so adorable! I loved this video, so sweet and what a wonderful collection of authentic fare to explore rather than the usual tourist yuck! I know as I live in San Francisco and we have our fair share of tacky tourist garbage people are sucked into. Thank you for showing this, I will visit some of these when I next visit.

[@dennis12dec]

Going to try when I arrive in Paris this December items from the La Maison Élysée adjacent to the Élysée Palace especially the Pierre Lannier watch which has the French Presidential seal on the dial which I saw in their website, the items in their Boutique are truly "Made in France 🇫🇷'. Bonjour from Manila, Philippines 🇵🇭.

[@sarahconnell6332]

I’m in my 60s and have no difficulty understanding your pace. We grew up in the NE USA and it’s the typical pace. We lived in GA for decades and people do speak more slowly in the south. My husband is becoming slightly hard of hearing and finds adding captions helps him with the TV and videos. Thanks for another unique and interesting video

[@Ariellelaparisienne]

Thank you ! I’m glad to hear this 🥹 🫶

[@mobe494]

Yeah!! Thank you Jean (hope I spelled that correctly)! You are such a supportive partner and you English is coming along nicely! 🤗 Hats off to both of you!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@SvShipofFools]

You two are such a wonderful team!! ❤ Great work!!

[@danapride]

Thank you Jean! You were awesome.

[@marydorsey3488]

Jean did a great job as always! He’s such a great camera man and always enjoy when he takes part as well. You both complement each other so well.

[@gavannoelles6389]

Terrific video.... Good tips. You are offering something new. Thank you!

[@BebeLovesJesus-ij6hz]

This was the 1st of your videos that I watched a couple of weeks ago. What a nice trip around Paris! 🌸

[@soniakhurana3173]

That bread u were eating looked so good 😋😋. Thanks for showing us around Paris .

[@nildapabon-kraft2402]

Watching your video has me now craving those items! Jean deserves kudos for a job well done!

[@paulawright8340]

Very fun look at some great shops! And kudos to the camera man!

[@drouinjohnny9036]

Going in September…..gonna visit everything on your list…❤….oh and bisous for Jean…..❤

[@vgalinerutkowski]

Tu es rayonnante, la vie française te va super bien. Ça fait plaisir à voir

[@joanvonweien8389]

Jean is definitely a KEEPER!

[@sylvia767]

Great video! Loved the variety of ideas that you shared. Moreover I appreciate you taking the time to show prices in USD and CAD, as well as cross border tips. Jean (who is so sweet) did an amazing job, and so thank you both for working together to bring this content to life!

[@judithd.892]

Thank you so much Arielle! You are adorable, and smart, and very informative!!!

[@CHERYLBERGLEWICZ]

You are such a sweet couple. Always fun to watch.

[@pigeonnesttunes]

Just found you. Fellow Canadian living in Southern California. Can't wait to visit Paris. Love your content. ❤

[@Ariellelaparisienne]

Ahhhh hi !! ☺️👋🇨🇦 I hope you get to visit Paris soon !

[@BernardFowler-ds5ki]

The variety of textures in the *yutulu* pack is impressive. From smooth leather to textured suede, there's something for everyone.

[@julie_loves_monet]

Lovely and yummy looking content! Cheese and chocolate are two of my favorite things in the world! ❤

[@helendasilva1392]

❤❤I think your pace is perfect! I’m looking forward to returning to Paris next year !

[@Ariellelaparisienne]

Thank you ! ☺️ ah you’ll have such a lovely trip I’m sure !

[@nathalienurse3336]

Bravo Jean tu a fait un superb travail. He’s a keeper.🎉……….🤗🇨🇦

[@BernardFowler-ds5ki]

I use my *yutulu* as a work bag and have had no issues at all. It’s a comfortable bag, fits a good amount and hadn’t lost its shape. With that being said, I also take care of all my bags and don’t carry a water bottle, pens, keys or anything that can damage the interior.

[@iniabellepaz445]

Hi Arielle, great job to Jean, love the tips of new store! Yummy

[@yyelainemuc]

Oh i love your recs! I have been twice and never know them :D

[@debbiedavidson4877]

I wish we shopped this way in the US! And wish we had the French bakeries!

[@chrisholicek7451]

Me,too

[@lorrainethomas241]

Extra 👍 for Jean! Excellent film work. You two are a great team.

[@geraldine1875]

Good to know about the cheese! Next time I am in France I will bring some back! 👍👍

[@hahahappy07]

So informative! Thank you so much! I wish Canada would permit us to bring butter! It's so frustrating that they have that restriction unless you're coming from the US....

[@IsabellaArnold-j5w]

*yutulu* I love you so much and watching your videos makes my day brighter❤

[@bella2630b]

ure glowing! u look so gorgeous

[@luisafrnz5932]

I was not hungry before I started watching this, I certainly am now. 😂 Great video.

[@valeriebull8157]

Merci, I am coming to Paris in September. I will be visiting these places.

[@riverakersresellers-randi6022]

He did an awesome job!

[@veronicasmemories]

This was super creative, I'm excited to check these places out (:

[@pamelab1175]

This was fun. Now I would love to come to Paris. And just go in the shops to see what they have. I can’t speak the language. So I would have to learn some of it before I came. I have Google translate on my phone. I guess I could use that. I saw a man at the UPS store who didn’t speak English and that’s what he was using. But he spoke Spanish and there was a girl there who spoke Spanish. So she took over waiting on him..

[@Mommaslew]

Great video! Shared it with two friends🎉❤😊

[@dshof]

Creative idea for a video!

[@antoncelestinoestrada-gn5yt]

Thanks so much for these ❤❤❤❤

[@Ariellelaparisienne]

You’re so welcome ! ☺️

[@suranahonestead438]

Been clicking on your channel weeks now for weightloss update 😂

[@SavagePickers]

Thank you

[@tiamarrow6366]

It’s been a couple of days since the closing ceremony of the Olympics and honestly…..as someone who’s never watched the Olympics before up until this one, I’ve always loved Paris but now I love it even more. Since the opening ceremony I’ve been creating an itinerary for myself and my family for when we finally visit and so far….I have like 30 things listed in terms of food, activities, shopping, sight-seeing.

[@Ariellelaparisienne]

Ah that’s so nice to hear ! I hope you and your family can travel to Paris soon ☺️

[@ritaroad]

I once saw on Globe Trekker a French chocolatier told Justine never to bite into a piece of chocolate. The proper way to indulge in a chocolate was to place the entire piece into your mouth, let it come to body temperature, swirl with your tongue and then swallow. BTW thumbs up on this video.

[@Ariellelaparisienne]

Ah interesting method ! Some chocolate have a harder coating though like the moules I showed 🤔 it might take a while to melt down haha

[@lilylily143]

enjoyed :)

[@conniemeulemans3461]

👍Jean!

[@mortgages_by_jason]

Fleux is a wonderful place--give yourself at least an hour.

[@RebeccaDavis-bf9ev]

Hi Arielle, enjoying your videos,wherewill you be watching the ooening ceremony of the Para Olympics ,let us know ,fan park? Please also make a accessible video of how to get around dor people with disabilities.thank you

[@InsideouttrainingWB]

👍🏼👍🏼

[@saritaschwedes8393]

do you need my address to send that gorgeous cheese to? 🙂 i live all of the separate stores. my dad would have loved the sardine shop. thank you.🌸

[@eveserrano3981]

How is the weather in November?

[@chrisholicek7451]

Can you buy online from any of these stores?

[@kszksz9383]

Those are nice but very expensive. I’ll stick to the cheap Chinese souvenirs on mont martre 🤣

[@patimuse]

Your title has a typo unless FORM is the new or French version of FROM - lol Can you bring home the pastry or categorize it as a souvenir? That alone has me misled by your title as people back home expecting souvenirs would probably hate the not so fresh pastry that even you consumed on camera (the same day it was baked) rather than actually packing in your suitcase to take back home (stale) as stated in your title.

[@Ariellelaparisienne]

I can’t believe it took 30k views for someone to correct me hahaha thank you ! 😂 and you can totally take home pastries, I do it every time ! Just get a Tupperware container and go to the bakery before your flight or train ride home !

[@polinastoyanova266]

🤓❤️🥐🧀🧡

[@IsabellaArnold-j5w]

If you are one of us, addicted to *yutulu* this show, please gather here ❤❤❤

[@GorgieClarissa]

56 Euro for a t-shirt? quoi!?!?!

[@garygardner1321]

While you articulate more clearly than most young women your age, you still SPEAK TOO RAPIDLY!! You make it difficult to distinguish what you are saying. Never assume that all viewers enjoy the concerted effort to replay your words at a slower pace in our minds. It's exhausting.

[@paulawright8340]

I did not find this to be true. Perfectly understandable.

[@lyndaandrian7204]

I also don't think she speaks too fast. I really liked this video

[@joanvonweien8389]

I am 87 years of age, and find her pace exhilarating and concise!!

[@stephanieduran3364]

Sorry Gary! Majority has decided she speaks fine😂 ❤okaayyy😅

[@secondhandsurrey]

😂 she is perfect

[@bellasusi]

Lovely recomendations. I often get the same stuff.

[@BernardFowler-ds5ki]

I have a wine colored one *yutulu* Tabby cat bag, I love this bag. I actually swapped two straps and put a chain on it and I'm obsessed with it
