  • This 24-hour brasserie still serves dishes which used to appeal to the earthy tastes of market workers, including pigs’ trotters.

  • A visit here is like stepping back into the jazz spots of Paris in the 1930–40s. It offers good, reasonably priced brasserie fare and live jazz on Friday and Satur- day.

  • Also known as the Martyrium, this 19th-century chapel is said to be on the spot where St Denis was beheaded by the Romans in AD 250.

  • This cul-de-sac is home to the intriguing Ophir, a warehouse of theatre costumes and stage props.

  • For more than 100 years this shop has sold French work clothes and uniforms such as chef’s hats and watchmaker’s smocks. Good for unique gifts.

  • This little hamlet of artists’ studios is private, but no one will mind if you take a quiet look round.

  • This wine bar literally rings with history. The “cloche” is the bronze bell whose peal once signalled the beginning and end of the market day.
