Café. Such a sweet spot! We love the cozy atmosphere at Prelude. Besides top coffee and pastries the teas are particularly nice. Good for breakfast, lunch, or the famous french “goûter” (afternoon sweet snack).

If the weather permits, trek (or drive) up this bucolic hill for a great panorama of the Seine and the city. Impressionist painters painted from this spot. Take a picnic!
