Moved to Paris six years ago purely for the food – and I've been eating my way through every neighborhood ever since. My obsession with finding the city's best croissants, cheeses, and hidden culinary gems has turned me into a walking encyclopedia of where locals actually eat and shop. I'll take you beyond the tourist traps to the places that make Parisians queue up, because nothing beats sharing an incredible meal with someone who's just as excited about food as you are.
