It cannot be said that the capital lacks coffee shops, for the sake of caféinomanes. One of the most popular addresses is the Starbucks and its many facilities.

A beautiful frame, good coffee and a hair service, difficult to play fine mouths. If not due to price, a cold shower offered by the house…

Rich of a family history, sketched a little more than 60 years ago by Raymond Berthillon (deceased in 2014), the famous Maison Berthillon is an ice cream parlour and tea room on rue Saint-Louis-en-l'Ile. The work, now done by the new generation, gives birth to creations that are a marvel of flavors and balance. Note: the Berthillon house makes a point of using natural products (milk, fresh cream, eggs, fruits...). It remains one of the best places in Paris to appreciate artisanal know-how.

Some like him, others love him, and as if his title of Meilleur Ouvrier de France received in 2000 was not enough, some go as far as describing him as "Rodin of chocolate". It must be said that his sculptures are bold and absolutely wonderful, he even recreated a cobblestone of May 68 to mark the 40th anniversary. He dares new mixtures - sometimes 14 products assembled in one creation - that delight the palate. He combines textures and aesthetics. Patrick Roger is also a master of taste who works  in his chocosphere! He imagines everything in his workshop in Sceaux where he transforms chocolate into wonderful sweets or into giant pieces of 80 kilograms.

Welcome to the oldest food market in Paris! The atmosphere here is more family-friendly, bobo style. All the main food trades are represented, with the presence of a few organic producers and oyster farmers. Few fruits and vegetables, however, and prices are at the higher end of the range. People come to Les Enfants-Rouges as much to shop as to eat. The choice is varied, with stands offering Moroccan, Italian, Asian and Lebanese specialties... Some of which you can sample on the spot.

There is always something going on here, and the welcome is not an empty word, don't hesitate.

The name is really well found. Volontaires, because this organic and eco-responsible store is located near the eponymous metro station, and for the proactive, militant side. And bulk, because here, no pasta in 500g packets or almonds in plastic bags... Everything is in bulk. Finally, the maximum of possible references. Besides fruits, vegetables and fresh products, Imane also offers everyday products (cosmetics, drugs...). More widely, she encourages her customers to consume well and better, in particular by organizing workshops.

This is nothing more than a corner of Italy in Mantises. Furthermore, this caterer only offers refined Italian specialities. Antipasti, bruschettas, cooked dishes, lasagna, cannelloni, pizzas, San Daniel meats, coffee, pasta, Sicilian cakes… not forgetting the cheeses of parmigiano or gorgonzola or wines and liqueurs. Here the master of the house is of Tuscan origin. And in the Rustighi, we work with family and father in son.

Really to discover to taste products from Italian territory.

Opened very early, the bakery already offers this advantage. However, bread is not always excellent, the stick, for example, is not the most successful. Efforts on presentation are a matter of course, but pastries, which appear to be prepared with the aim of favouring the quality of raw materials, still lack the generous or talented touch of good taste. Resuming family business is not always easy, it is a challenge here, and despite the natural unleavened that should fill the client, the price does not justify the general benefit.

The Grandin house is an honorable establishment of the city, and for good reason, they have been making pastries, chocolate sweets, ice creams and other desserts since 1822.

Go to Epicerie Izraël, where you can get spices of all kinds in huge burlap flap, jams, dried fruit or candies, oils, vinegar, alcohols, liqueurs, teas, and many more things!

On the stalls, fruits and vegetables, cereals, juices, jams, beer, meat, hygiene and cleaning products...
