i need items that i can include in a gift basket that i can surprise a client's wife with a trip to Paris, France this Christmas, for example the commercial where a woman unwraps a hot dog in a box and automatically thinks Chicago. I need a bunch of items for a gift basket that i can buy. just want some good ideas.
What to include in a gift basket to surprise wife with a trip to Paris, France?
If you want to go the kitschy route, fill up the basket with replicas of the Eiffel Tower, Napoleon and Les Invalides. But personally, I'd take a classier approach, and one that's consistent with your 'hot dog/Chicago' approach:
Fill your basket with baguettes, wonderful French cheeses, some pates and rillettes (with accompanying cornichons and moutardes, of course!); and most important, French wine. To add a whimsical touch, perch a black beret on top.
She'll know right away where she's going, and she'll have a lovely lunch to enjoy while she plans her activities in Paris.
Good luck!

I think should look for things that scream France...
like maybe a black beret, eiffle tower key chain, French fries (if you wanted to be funny), croissants, a pictures of France, a mini French flag, a picture of Napoleon (again would be funny), a map of France (check traveling agency's), a French maid costume (something you both can enjoy :) ), wine, banquettes, take a walk around the imports section in your grocery store I'm sure you'll find something...
Have fun in France... Au' Revoir!!
Reply:In addition to some flowers and candy I would include Art Museum and Eiffel Tower tickets.
Also a map of Paris with some landmarks highlighted.
Cheers.
