Next week I&#39;ll go to Paris, for 5 days, with my sister. Without our small (3-6year old) kids! Our plan is a lot of #knitting and taking in the Paris ambiance (I.e. drinking coffee, eating good food, watching people). Any tips? - non-dairy food suggestions welcome - due to illness there will not be a lot of walking possible. Although I might take a stroll, our aim is to take public transport and walk as little as possible... and knit! We&#39;re really excited! #travel #Paris #suggestions

@nobyeni@zirk.us Can you ride a bike? I haven't been to Paris in ages, but hear that bicycle infrastructure has improved tremendously over the last few years.

@nobyeni@zirk.us we plan to go in May and I bought this book. Lots of 'voorpret' https://maragrimm.nl/2022/11/10/bon-appetit-paris/

@nobyeni@zirk.us you may enjoy the (not so small anymore) craft shop called lil' weasel (https://www.lilweasel.com/), which is located in a gorgeous, typically parisian "passage couvert" (this one is the Passage du grand cerf). The closest métro station is Etienne Marcel on line 4. Another good option is "la droguerie" (https://www.ladroguerie.com), which is a historical shop full of props (buttons, threads, ribbons, tools, and wool of course). It's very central, the closest métro station is Les Halles (also on line 4).
