Chocolate eclairs are actually a zillion times better in France because they are not filled with that disgusting custard like they are in North America. They are actually filled with chocolate filling. (Seems only logical that the filling and not the glaze is what makes it chocolate).
Nevertheless, I still miss Japan. French bakeries in Japan are actually better than French bakeries in France anyway.
"Whereas the tourist generally hurries back at the end of a few weeks or months, the traveler, belonging no
more to one place than the next, moves slowly, over a
period of years, from one part of the earth to another.
Indeed, he would have found it difficult to tell, among
the many places he had lived, precisely where it was he felt the most at home."

Who doesn't love Eclairs??? And when I smoked Paris was heaven. Now that I don't the smoking part doesn't matter so much...but eclairs...yes please.
