Foodie Heaven

In our last post before we make the trip to Paris next week, we’re concentrating on the foodie aspect of the city. There are so many varieties of food on offer, from expansive markets to homespun cafes, there really is something for everyone!

Place Vendôme


Bustling baguette shop, Place Vendôme, is the perfect stop off for a crispy baguette filled with a range of delicious cheese and meats. Full of neighborhood locals, you may have to queue before elbowing your way into a seat, but it’s well worth it for a filling snack and glass of rustic wine.

Raspail Market


Every kind of food; from fruit to poultry, cheese to truffles, this organic market has them all. Open Sundays from 9am to 2pm it’s a great place to do the weekly shop or simply marvel at the fresh flavours of the stalls.
Boulevard Raspail, between the rue de Rennes and the rue du Cherche-Midi, Paris 6th

Al Taglio


Inspired by the Roman custom to sell pizza by the weight, Al Taglio select the finest Italian ingredients and lay them over a light, crispy dough. Served in slices cut into bite-seized pieces, the best course of action is to choose a full range of toppings and sample each as a table rather than an individual. But whatever you do, make sure to try their famous pizza à la truffe

CRU


If you’re tried of heavy meals that cause that horrible bloating feeling, then CRU is the place for you. Specialising in delicately prepared raw, healthy foods; why not enjoy the fresh flavours with a glass of wine on it’s outdoor terrace in the heart of Village Saint- Paul.
