la galette du Rois - the Epiphany cake eaten last week chez nous and sold in boulangeries all during January. The ancient feast celebrating the three Kings who found a baby in Bethlehem still observed today. There's a feve, a porcelain charm, buried inside and whoever gets that slice is king or queen and wears the crown.

Passage Verdeau, a 19th century glass covered passage in the 2nd arrondissement, one of many built to protect shoppers from the muddy unpaved streets, the weather and horse droppings. There were once over 100 passages couverts throughout the city, now only about 20 still exist. Some still protect passages with very high-end stores, others with just regular shops. Passage Brady in the 9th arrondissement is filled with Indian restos and Tamil voices.
