  • Specializing in products from the Auvergne, mostly foodstuffs such as Auvergne sausages.

  • Christian Constant is arguably the best chocolatier in Paris and spends much of his time globetrotting in search of ever-more exotic flavours.

  • Christian Dior

    The grey and white decor, with silk bows on chairs, makes a chic backdrop for fashions from lingerie to evening wear.

  • This shop dates from 1800 when chocolate was sold for medicinal purposes. The window displays would tempt anyone.

  • One of the best bakers in the Marais, almost worth having a picnic just as an excuse to try the croissants, baguettes and the cake-like walnut bread.

  • This shop carries the less expensive U line as well as Ungaro’s main collection.

  • Stylish, coloured ceramics, tiles, lamps and other goods, run by an interior decorator.

  • The king of Parisian épiceries (grocers). The mouth-watering window displays are works of art and tempt you inside for pastries, exotic fruits and some 20,000 other items.

  • The sister shop to the above offers a similar range, with freshly baked rye bread plus a deli.

  • Dating from 1808, the colourful Marché aux Fleurs (flower market) on the Ile de la Cité is the oldest and one of the largest flower markets in Paris. Its blooms brighten up the area between the stark walls of the Conciergerie and Hôtel Dieu from Monday to Saturday – everything from orchids to orange trees. On Sundays it is joined by the Marché aux Oiseaux (bird market) with equally colourful, caged species.
