CHECK OTHER REVIEWS FOR THIS PLACE:
I just remembered that I've published a review about this Terminal's Lounge lately, but not about the space itself. Terminal K is one of three traveling hubs constituting Paris' famous Terminal E; K, L or M. Three distinct buildings you'll drop into by chance without any planning ahead.
After passing security check that is located in the middle of this terminal that has a long tube shape, you'll be welcomed by the Hermes boutique before choosing to go left or right. Both ways will end in the tube or more specifically in an alley of gates. I recommend you start with the right side where some boutiques are located then come back to the more interesting part on the left side with a food court, coffee shops and Air France lounge.
Some important things to know:
- Air France lounge is located to your left after passport control in Level -1
- The food court is on the left, on level 1 (Meza Liza, Le Petit Gourmet, Fusion Wok, Piatto del Gusto)
- Chanel is preparing to open one of the biggest shops inside an airport
- Along gate 45, next to Swarovski, is a smokers paradise. A large salon specially designed for the needy
The terminals little details:
- This terminal is built in a tube shape covered in wood, an absorbent and beautiful material at the same time
- Red carpet adds the needed warmth of finesse making it feel like home
- The main shopping area is constructed in a circular shape, where going left or right takes you to the same ending on the main terminal tube
- Mainly all fine and delicatessen French brands are represented in this terminal. From the La Duree macarons, Angelina's Mont Blanc and macarons, Rougie's fine Foie Gras, Fauchon's wide choice of biscuits and much more.

- La Maison du Chocolat
