This Christmas market is festive: 18 French craftsmen (cabinet makers, glassblowers ...) and 14 creators of the Chamber of Crafts of Paris will reveal their know-how. So go and experience for the first time, the biggest market of the capital in a different setting.

Description: I know that the Christmas Market has you already craving for food but If you haven’t bought a lot of food related products and haven’t eaten a lot of sweets be sure to eat a gateau de rois also known as tortell. A tortell is a Catalan and Occitan pastry typically O-shaped, usually stuffed with marzipan or whipped cream, that on some special occasions is topped with glazed fruit. It is traditionally eaten on January 6 (Epiphany), at the conclusion of the Twelve Days of Christmas. This is also known as the day of the Three Wise Men according to the Catholic liturgical calendar. The tortell contains two hidden surprises: a dried field bean, and a tiny figurine of one of the three kings. The person who gets the figurine in their cut gets to wear the paper crown. The person who gets the dried fava bean in their cut has to pay for the tortell – so be careful and enjoy. For the 2019 epiphany, Pastry Chef Yann Brys seduces us with two cakes from the kings: the Réjane cake and the Brach cake! Lovers of tortells will experience dilated eyes and taste buds for the epiphany 2019 thanks to two creations signed by the Best Craftsman of France, Yann Brys. Gourmandise and elegance are the watchwords of his pastry with pear and dried fruit flavors. So, if this makes you already crave sweets go and visit. Make your first experience of this French tradition a good one that you will remember for times come.

Description: To end this Christmas trip, the right thing to do is to drink good authentic French hot red wine. One of the best authentic French places to do so is Chez Georges. Behind a vintage wooden facade, this bistro confirms its reputation as a wine bar by offering warm wines to its customers. This legendary bar is the spot for party goers and wine dancers. Indeed, located in the Saint-Germain district, the atmosphere is at the party: in a cellar in the basement are regularly given concerts to which jostle the students as the oldest. At Georges, you can end your day while enjoying the wine of the house or a mulled wine at less than 4 € and accompanied by good French songs or perhaps a nice jazz rhythm to relax to.
