The most complete Christmas guide is here
With Christmas just around the corner, snow globe business is here to guide you through the holidays.
Speaking of Christmas, we have to talk about the special food on the dinner table of French people on Christmas Eve. Do you know what food they must eat?
Step 1: Seafood
The food for each family on Christmas Eve will be slightly different depending on the taste of each family, but generally there will be prawns, mussels, clams, langoustines and, of course, oysters. If you're in a more affluent home, you might see a cooked crab or a lobster.
2. Foie gras
As the national delicacy of France, foie gras is also an essential traditional dish on the Christmas menu. It's usually served on toast, and few people would say no to this delicacy.
3. Smoked salmon
Smoked salmon is also a staple of French family Christmas dinners. It is usually smoked over a wood fire and then sliced and salted by hand. The ingredients can only contain salmon and salt, and some may contain a little sugar.
4. Duck legs in confit
Duck confit can be found in most restaurants in France, and it tastes good, usually with potatoes and garlic. As a classic French dish, many French families eat it on Christmas Eve.
Step 5: Turkey
Turkey is as traditional a symbol of Christmas as the Christmas tree is. Turkeys are usually stuffed with chestnuts. Between you and me, Turkey goes great with white wine! I recommend you all try it.
6. Tree Root cake
Root cake has a variety of flavors. Besides the traditional cream and chocolate, vanilla, coffee, strawberry and almond are also popular. In fact, now you can also eat delicious root cake ~ in China.
7. Chestnuts with rock sugar
Chestnuts with rock sugar are also one of the specialties of France, where they are only available around Christmas every year. Mycobacterium as a chestnut fanatic, two days ago just bought a box said to taste. It's certainly not as good as the domestic chestnut stir-fried with sugar, but it shouldn't be bad.
But once I put it in my mouth, I'm sorry, I'm so naive! The intensity of that sweetness, that weird texture. The Fungus never thought chestnuts would one day taste so bad.
After seeing so much delicious food, we also want to see what kind of fun Christmas things are ~
1. Writing a letter to Santa
For a few years now, La Poste has had an interesting service during the Christmas season -- we can write letters to Santa Claus! This really satisfies the childlike innocence of big children like bacteria ~ although we have grown up to know that Santa Claus does not exist, but even so, who does not look forward to receiving a letter from Santa Claus personally?
After you've written what you want to say to Santa, you can put it to Santa's secretary at the post office. Oh, and now even Santa has a website! You can also go to the website and write directly.

2. The cheapest way to feel Christmas is to stroll the streets of Paris.
In fact, the city's Christmas decorations are one of the best ways for visitors and Parisians alike to get into the spirit of Christmas this time of year. At the beginning of the night, tourists from all over the world come out to enjoy the beauty of the streets of Paris.
From November to early January, the Champs-Elysees, Avenue Montaigne, Place Vendome, the Montmartre area and many other parts of Paris are illuminated by Christmas lights. This is definitely one of the best sights to see in Paris at Christmas.
Recommended spot: The Champs-Elysees
The Christmas lighting ceremony at Heung Street began in 1981. This year, as in previous years, the Christmas lighting at Heung Street will last for about two months. It will begin on November 24, 2019 and end on January 8.
The Champs-Elysees is busy with Christmas lights. All night from December 24 to December 31, from 17:00 to 2am the next day, the whole Xiangjie Street will "flicker" in the light and shadow effect combined with movement and movement.
Where: Galeries Lafayette, Boulevard Haussmann
Before and after Christmas, Haussmann Avenue is also full of a Christmas atmosphere. It is worth mentioning that Galeries Lafayette department store. I do not know whether you know, Paris Galeries Lafayette flagship store every year at this time will appear a giant Christmas tree, loaded with giant flowers and the necessary Christmas accessories.
The specific time is from midnight on November 20, 2019 until January 05, 2020.
Best way for lazy people: tour bus
The Paris tour bus, organized by OpenTour, runs from 29 November 2019 to 5 January 2020 (except 24 December and 31 December) with more than 34 stops on 3 routes and passes through some of the most beautiful places and monuments in Paris (Opera House, Champs-Elysees, Rue des Cheres, Place Vendome, Place de la Concorde, Eiffel Tower, Les Invalides, Louvre and so on).
There are also special headphones to explain the car, don't worry about not understanding, 9 languages you can choose! The most concerned price: adults (over 16 years old) 34 euros, children 17 euros.
From Saturday, December 14, 2019 to Sunday, January 5, 2020, the fontaine-aux-Lion Square will be transformed into a mini playground. Although it is small, but a variety of amusement facilities are very complete, men and women, young and old, can find their own association of entertainment.

Duck confit can be found in most restaurants in France, and it tastes good, usually with potatoes and garlic. As a classic French dish, many French families eat it on Christmas Eve.
