Watch: Director Jean-Pierre Jeunet has a knack for making France seem romantic and glorified at the same time. Watch the curious Micmacs, the melancholy Delicatessen or iconic Amelie.

Eat: There's no better occasion to try snails than France's national holiday. Venture to Queen St's Le Garde Manger to sample their garlic ones, or buy your own shells and flesh from The Pyrenees in Mt Albert.

Wear: French label A.P.C (which stands for Atelier de Production et de Creation) specialises in minimalist clothing for men and women and perfectly encapsulates that clean Parisian aesthetic. A.P.C is available from Made.
