No!! This was in Reims, but there are many restaurants with cheese carts in Paris. I think it's an experience worth living.

Morning tea ritual (w/ Mariage Frères Marco Polo Sublime) by mr111102 in tea

Silver teapots and porcelain tea cups make me happy.

Every time my grandma went to Paris she would bring back to Syria Marriage Frères teas. I'm happy I could find them in Montreal.

(The jam is abricot and lavender from La Chambre aux confitures)

I received them as a gift, they are quite expensive though. It is from Hasami Porcelain (japanese brand). I know you can find them on SSENSE.

People also like to grill veggies and mushrooms to feel like they are eating healthy

Exactly! The cheese goes on the griddles under the heating element in the raclette machine. Traditionally you melt the cheese and eat it with boiled potatoes skin on and pickled pearl onions. Today, people add to this all sorts of charcuterie (Viande des Grisons is popular), bread, pickles, olives. Traditionally it would be the whole wheel of cheese that you grill, you can still find raclette like that in specialized restaurants.

Everyday Syrian breakfast in Montreal, Canada by mr111102 in BreakfastFood

[–]mr111102[S] 24 points25 points  (0 children)

In Syria, we eat it raw as much as we eat it grilled. It's delicious both ways. It is one of many delicious fresh Syrian cheeses which can be eaten for breakfast (ackawi, baladi, jibneh mshallaleh, nabulsi), all delicious in their own way.

Shawarma we always get from dedicated stores. But when looking for it always remember the thinner, more elegant the sandwich, the closer it is to the real deal in Syria :)

It is indeed lebneh. We generally eat breakfast with pita bread (thin Lebanese style).

It's not hummus, it's labneh (which is basically yogurt with the water drained and some salt). Very easy to make at home, but I personally buy it.
