Only good things..... They are part of a shopping mall that stays open about an hour after the regular retail stores close. This way you can get what you really came for without having to carry it around while shopping. Once outside one can go from window to window looking at the Christmas displays.

I've been three times in the last three years, despite not living in the country. It's a little hectic and hard to navigate for me to love unreservedly, but there's no doubt that it offers a plethora of good food. I can't think of anything quite like it in the U.S., but if you've been to the Harrods food halls or department stores in Asia, you might recognize the dense arrangement of mini restaurants and food purveyors, spread out across several floors. My first visit was for an hour-long hangout with friends, and we had a hell of a time finding a place to sit down while we got a coffee or snack. We went up and down the escalator scouting things out, but almost every spot with seating was overrun on a Saturday afternoon. We ended up at an okay pan-Asian spot called Rice Street between lunch and dinner service, getting boba and sheltering from the chaos. I went two days in a row on my more recent trip to Paris, first for a Glace BACHIR pop-up, and then to get an easy on-the-go lunch before getting sucked into the broader maw of the main Galeries Lafayette. It was crowded both days, the ground floor crawling with people. Both the ice cream and my sandwich, from Chez Meunier, were delicious. I haven't quite figured out Galeries Lafayette Gourmet, but it's a worthwhile destination if you want to run around trying pastries and chocolates and other French delectables. It's kind of overwhelming, but you will likely eat well.

I'd bookmarked Barthélémy when looking for new places to enjoy for a recent solo visit of mine then coincidentally my bff recommended them to me a few days later mentioning Ina Garten loves this cheese store, so I knew it was a must. When you walk through the door you will feel what it feels and smells like to have entered cheese heaven! You will say Holy Cow!!! pun intended but it's not all cow, it's goat, and sheep and everything your little cheese loving heart could desire. This is the most gorgeous cheese store. I have my favorites here in the states... Murray's, Cowgirl Creamery, Rogue Creamery and many others but I was ready to dive right in to the delish French options here. I was greeted immediately and provided with superb service. I had no one particular thing in mind I simply wanted to purchase a whole bunch of everything. We spent a good amount of time going over many of the cheeses and I selected several to vacuum seal to bring home in addition to a couple to enjoy during my stay in France. If you are a cheese lover, you must visit Barthélémy.
