Paris Shopfronts
By: Joel Holland
Words By: Vivian Song Foreword By: Sarah Andelman
WHAT IS THE BOOK ABOUT?
Brimming with joie de vivre and delightful detail, this journey through Paris’s neighborhoods captures two hundred intriguing storefronts that help make the city a shopper’s and tourist’s paradise. As in his previous books illustrating the shops of New York City and London, Joel Holland offers the unique perspective of a traveler on foot. Paris-based journalist Vivian Song’s text provides an insider’s perspective as to why each location is worthy of a stop on any itinerary.
There are plenty of iconic stores here: Le Bon Marché, France’s first department store; Shakespeare and Company, the most famous English-language bookshop in the city; the Moulin Rouge, where the can-can was born; and the Ladurée macaron shop.
But there’s also a bounty of lesser-known places, like a Moroccan restaurant frequented by the city’s top chefs; a taxidermist’s mecca; a historic lingerie shop that birthed the predecessor of the modern-day brazier; and a beloved hole-in-the-wall that sells authentic Shanghai-style pan-fried buns.
WHY TRAVELERS WILL LOVE IT
This book is perfect to help you create your ultimate Bucket List when traveling to Paris. It will remind you of popular places to go and also help you discover some hidden gems throughout the city, Even if you’re just daydreaming of a European getaway, this book is and amazing way to feel like you’re on vacation without leaving your couch.

BLACK AND WHITE
Sweet Chaos is like a well-deserved sigh of pure relief – a delightful break in your day or, as they like to say, delightfully disruptive. They hand POP their NON-GMO kernels in coconut oil for a creamy richness. Then they add two drizzles all while skipping the nasty, artificial stuff.
We could not get enough of this popcorn and quickly finished the bag during a movie night. The delicious chocolatey blend on the kettle corn was heaven in your mouth!
JALAPENO BLUE CHEESE
They hand POP their NON-GMO kernels in coconut oil for a creamy richness, then they add real blue cheese while skipping the nasty, artificial stuff. This was my personal favorite. It had a great kick that was tamed by the blue cheese, making it a delicious combination in your mouth.
DILL PICKLE
Made with REAL Dill & Vinegar!
They add real dill and vinegar while skipping the nasty, artificial stuff. My daughter’s favorite food are pickles and she absolutely LOVED this popcorn. Even if you’re not a pickle lover, it’s great for people who love vinegar-based food.
MOVIE THEATER BUTTER
They add real butter and sea salt while skipping the nasty, artificial stuff. This popcorn is so delicious and has just the right amount of salt and butter. We had to put the bag in the pantry because every time someone walked past it we would grab a handful.
