Spending a day in Paris #3: A guide to the tops (by The Telegraph)

For our last taste of Paris, I'm sending you to The Telegraph (U.K.) for a recent update to its guide to the city. There are lists on the best hotels, restaurants, sites, nightspots, and shopping venues. It's not necessarily the place I'd recommend if you were planning a trip; in its brevity, one almost feels it was written from a desk somewhere in London. For example, the Musée du quai Branly is one of the "top five sites," but Notre Dame and Montmartre are not to be found. We'll forgive the idiocyncracies, however; when faced with the richness of Paris, choosing a few glories is an impossible task. And there's enough there to generate some longing.
