What to expect
Boulangerie Poilane
Begin your exploration of the food scene in Marais the French way: with a buttery croissant from a local baker. Sample some of the freshly baked sourdough and hear more about how this bread is different to any other you’ll find in the city!
15 minutes
Le Traiteur Marocain
At a historic market in the neighborhood, it's time for a lesser known but equally delicious snack: savory Moroccan crepes. As you bite into your crepe, you're guide will share its connection to French colonialism and how this street food was adapted for Parisian tastes.
20 minutes
Jean-Paul Hévin
It’s time for something sweet! Next, you’ll take a trip to one of the best chocolatiers in the neighborhood. Sample some macarons from a spot whose owner boasts the title of Meilleur Ouvrier de France – a title reserved for craftspeople at the top of their trade.
15 minutes
Sacha Finkelsztajn - La Boutique Jaune
Learn more about the Jewish history of Paris with a visit to this store, opened in the 1946 in the heart of the Jewish Quarter. Full to the brim with various delicacies you won’t find elsewhere, you’ll get to sample some of their specialties including a brioche stuffed with beef (or a vegetarian equivalent!).
10 minutes
La Chaise au Plafond
Then, sit down for lunch at a classic French bistro. Here everything is made from scratch, and you'll tell the difference as you try some delicious French onion soup or other classic dishes. During your meal you'll also learn the tips for dining bistro-style from your guide.
30 minutes
Maison Aleph
A modern classic awaits at your next stop. This French-Syrian bakery fuses flavors of the Middle East and local French ingredients into little “nests” of joy. These pastries are pure delights and showcase the potential in combining two delicious cuisines.
10 minutes
Fromagerie Laurent Dubois
Your penultimate stop is an up-and-coming cheesemaker where you'll try a flight of artisan cheeses.
10 minutes
L'Etiquette - Cave/bar à vins (vins bio, nature & dégustation)
The final stop on our French food adventure is, of course, a wine shop! Here you’ll meet the owner of this local gem and hear about his selective process of sourcing his natural wines. Sip on some sparkling refreshment as you expand your knowledge of French wines.
