Pâques 
Side chapel at Notre Dame Cathedral 
American Cathedral of Paris 
If you didn't know it is Pâques (Easter time) for religious reasons, then you would know something is afoot every time you pass a chocolaterie (chocolate shop). Splendid displays of dark and milk chocolate eggs are everywhere. Also mixed in are chocolate fish in celebration of Poisson d'avril, the French version of our April Fools on April 1. "April's fish" refers to the joking attempt to paste a paper fish on someone's back without their knowing it. Enjoy browsing the Paris chocolate shop windows below which are some of the best chocolateries in the city. And Joyeuses Pâques to you and yours!  La Maison du Chocolat

Debauve et Gallais Of course, buying chocolate in Paris is facile (easy) and
it transports well. But if you want to get a taste of some of the
French chocolates above and skip the trans-Atlantic flights, check
out La
Maison du Chocolat in New York. They have three boutiques in
the Big Apple, and they ship as well. www.lamaisonduchocolat.com
