The atmospheric and vibrant streets of Les Halles are teeming with markets and food shops with endless varieties of cheese, fine wine, fish and seafood, award-winning meats, the freshest fruits and vegetables, prepared foods, and so much more! Explore the shops of artisan bakers—including the oldest pastry shop in Paris, whose original chef created confections for the court of Versailles. Stores offering a vast array of honey, chocolates, foie gras, ham, pâtés, and every imaginable mustard and condiment are here too. Come just to view and be awed, or, weather permitting, choose what you like to create a scrumptious picnic to be enjoyed in a tranquil garden on the edge of the Seine…or bring back to your apartment to enjoy with your partner/family at “home.”
