Breakfast in Square Gabriel Pierné

A truly Parisian breakfast enjoyed under the cherry blossoms. This little square is one of the city’s hidden gems and is located in Sant-Germain-des-Prés just a stone’s throw from the Seine riverbanks. The most magical time of year here is in early April when the centuries old cherry trees burst into bloom for a week or two, decorating the square with pink clouds and highlighting the gilded dome of the Institut de France just behind.
