A Tasty Surprise on Second Sunday

As I wandered down King Street during Second Sunday a few days ago, I couldn't help but be reminded of the streets of Europe, filled with boutiques, cafes, restaurants, and shops.  The monthly closing of King Street allows locals to enjoy a meal or a drink outdoors,  musicians playing on the sidewalks, and easy access to countless stores.  The positive energy is contagious and is complimented by a sense of community as pedestrians rule the street for five hours, taking in all there is to experience. 

The best part of this particular Sunday for me was walking a few steps down Society Street to Christophe Artisan, Chocolatier & Patissier .   The French flag hangs proudly outside the gourment pastry and chocolate shop and is visible from King Street.  After one sample, I was sold. The pastries are authentic and delicious, and I for one am delighted that the French chocolatier is sharing his sweet talent with our city! Stop by for a taste- this shop is worth the trip!
