Shopping in Paris: 1st Stop Monoprix

by Moi

What’s the 1st stop for every ex-expat returning to Paris for a visit: Monoprix, bien sur! I need to stock up on all the French kitchen essentials that I’ve depleted since my last visit, and see what’s new. Plus, Christmas is just around the corner and maybe a few gourmet French foods can be checked off my list!


Moi Monoprix essentials:
1. La Petit Marsellaise soap and refills
2. Salt: grinder and fleur de sel
3. Seasonings and spices
4. Olive oil with peppers (for pizza!)
5. hard sausages
6. cheeses
7. Breakfast cereal
8. Cookies: Madelines and Speculoos
9. Yogurt (I ate the yogurt: I wanted the lavender clay pots!)
10. Cornichon
11. Chocolates
12. Throat lozenges (sore throat )
13. Blinis

I have a 50lb weight limit: I may have to leave some clothes behind!
