Immerse yourself in the world of French gastronomy as we explore the market’s diverse offerings. From learning about the various cheeses that grace the stalls to discovering the finest French wines to complement your culinary journey, every moment promises to be a treat for your senses.
Our adventure begins under the covered section of the market, where we’ll be greeted by the inviting aromas of the meat and charcuterie stalls. Follow me as we weave through the bustling market to the enticing cheese stalls, and then on to the vibrant fish section, boasting Paris’s freshest catch of the day.
Our market exploration culminates in the colorful vegetable section, where Laurence will handpick some seasonal fruits and vegetables for us to savor. Prepare to taste the unexpected, like a delightful seasonal persimmon or a unique blue radish with its sweet and mild flavor.
