Going to Paris and meeting Kababayans? What to bring as Pasalubong
The Executive Assistant of the President and CEO of the company Alan works for is a Filipina. She is a long-time Paris resident who has a French husband and lovely French-Filipino children. I told Alan to ask her what she would want us to bring from New York, particularly the Filipino stores here in New York and she came back with “Bagoong.” Although there is a Filipino store in Paris, they do not sell Bagoong. So I bought her the regular and spicy variety of Kamayan Bagoong, and I bought the same for Jeannie who I wasn’t even sure I’d get to meet up with. (I told her I would’ve just given it away to the next ) Pinoy I walked up to on Champs Elysees if we had not seen each other.)
I also heard that Hershey’s is also a treat. (I only found this out when I was there, so I didn’t get to bring any.)
