Shopping
Strasbourg's swishest shopping street is rue des Hallebardes, whose window dis-
plays are real eye candy ( Baccarat Offline map Google map is at No 44). High-
street stores punctuate rue des Grandes Arcades and Grand' Rue, while Petite
France is crammed with souvenir shops selling stuffed storks and pretzels aplenty.
Strasbourg is also well known for its sweet tooth. Pick up gingerbread at Mireille
