About this experience

From Beaubourg to Bastille, the Marais concentrates most of the pleasures Paris offers. Old mansions, trendy art galleries, fashion shops and of course a huge range of food shops. It's an astonishing place bringing together an eclectic mix of people from across the world to enjoy its charming little streets and feast their eyes on the windows displaying cupcakes, pastrami, bagels and falafels. Simply one of the best places to shop food in Paris!

Discover the secrets of little shops and indulge - yourself in the Marché des Enfants Rouges. Within a stone's throw from the Pablo Picasso Museum, this indoor market is the oldest one in Paris; founded in 1605.

From Tuesday to Sunday, Parisians rush to its alleys where you can find fresh fish, oysters, delicious cheeses from all of the regions of France, cured meats, seasonal fruit and vegetables. Here, food delicacies come from Aveyron, Vendée, Pays Basque and more French regions renowned for their delicious products. There are also organics products and a wine merchant who would be delighted to share with you his knowledge of food and wine pairing! It's a place where you can fill your basket or your trolley, but also a place where you can sit and enjoy the menus of French and exotic restaurants and delicatessens. Parisian hipsters and «Bobo» love sipping a glass of wine or having brunch after their shopping.

Let's be inspired by them and enjoy Exquisite French Cheese, Patisserie and Wine!
