If you've been to Paris, you've probably shopped at Galeries. The high end store is known for crystal jewelry and expensive goods (clothes, bags, etc! I'm not much of a shopper when it comes to clothing or accessories, but I do love bringing home gourmet stuff for the kitchen. You can sip on fine Ruinart champagne or even have a glass of Bourdeux after browsing around as the bar set up is right here front and center. (Good marketing strategy? While I stood there for awhile deciding which brand of foie gras to take home, ultimately, I went with dependable Rougie. I love their black truffle flavor one too! and even for only a 1 oz. jar, the price is only 12 euro. You'll inevitably end up at the Gendarmenmarkt area if visiting the konzerthaus or the church. It's easy to head over to the other side of the street to check out Galeries. If you need to take the Ubahn, get off at Französische station. Happy shopping!

Foie gras, champagne, red wine, white wine, premium vodka, chocolates, macarons, handmade candies, preserves, jellies, Fleur de sel, baking products, Le Creuset cookware. I liked the olive oil bottles they look like fancy soap bottles. They also have fresh fruits, veggies, cheese, meat, etc. Fill up a picnic basket and go to a park. I was tempted to buy the 5kg jar or Nutella but my luggage was already overweight. So, I ended up just getting a few items, black truffles and foie gras. Yuuuum!!!
