Best food in the world?

Here's in interesting article. Can't say that D. and I agree with it for NYC as we have our own favorite spots but we do agree with one recommendation for Paris:

Laduree in Paris is a must for a nice afternoon treat at the Salon de the'. Not the one on the Champs Elysee which is newer and more commercial, but the original shop on Rue Royale in the VIII's arrondissement. that shop originates from 1862 and is oh so charming and cozy on a chilly Paris day. Worth the wait to indulge in tarte tatin (an amazing up-side down apple pie with caramelized apples), the classic macaroons, and the millefeuille (a pastry with thin crispy layers of pastry and light creme in between the layers).

You'll need to walk it off but those are some worthwhile calories.
