Market gardeners Paris

Nice name for this fruit and vegetable store that was in another time a house selling snails… It is Max Huguet who transforms it into the 1960 s of the halles. Today it is his son Serge who is the chief gardener. It is high quality self-service where prices remain within reasonable limits, no more expensive than in the corner of the corner with quality plus. And then we take a full look, the colors of fruits and vegetables are beautiful, we quickly feel that we are in a place of quality. The seasons are respected, so don't ask for cherries in November… only the rule at the time of Christmas holidays…

It's a simple fact: the standardization of visual criteria and the waste of food for futile reasons are taking their toll. Thus, many fruits and vegetables considered as "ugly" are irremediably thrown away before being consumed: crooked carrots, tomatoes with a big nose, deformed strawberries. That's why Curiosities has set itself the goal of offering them to you: no more waste, hello original (and not ugly) fruits that keep their flavor and, for many, will bring an original touch to your dishes. The icing on the cake is that the company makes it a point of honor to pay the producers concerned as much as possible. True to her values, Maria the owner continues her quest for ever more responsible and ethical products and now offers a well-stocked grocery section (aperitif cakes, spreads, wine, beer, cookies...) but also more exotic but still eco-responsible fruits and vegetables (avocados, mangoes, oranges...) thanks to her partnership with Etic Miam.

A nice story that this Bocal! The fruit of the meeting between Stéphanie and Sophie who worked in the same organic store. Together, they have built for two years the project of this grocery store in accordance with their values. An organic grocery store where products are sold in bulk or packaged in glass. Fruits and vegetables, dairy products, dry goods, hygiene products and products for the house... Their key words? Quality, responsibility, independence and accessibility. We can only support them.
