  • Specialist in comic books, which are big business in France, from Tintin to erotica.

  • Cheese fans should not miss this shop, selling cheese from all over France, with a chance to taste before you buy.

  • Bon

    Wonderful patisserie, with an especially good line in small fruit tarts, such as lemon and strawberry. Fat-free cheesecake for the health-conscious, too.

  • Bouquinistes

    The green stalls of the booksellers (bouquinistes ) on the quays of the Left Bank are a Parisian landmark. Pore over the posters, old postcards, magazines, hardbacks, paperbacks, comics and sheet music.

  • Rue de Buci and the streets around are home to some smart food shops, not least this chocolatier specializing in unusual flavours such as chilli pepper.

  • A small market specializing in organic produce every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday morning. A good place to pick up olives, cheese, tomatoes and fruit.

  • For a sweet treat this patisserie provides great cakes, sharp lemon tarts, mouth-watering chocolate and strawberry creations.

  • If you like strong tastes, try this shop which features produce from Alsace, including cold meats, cheese and wines.

  • This award-winning charcuterie shouldn’t be missed. Flavoured sausages and boudin blanc are specialities, and the cold meats are ideal for picnics.

  • Produce from Normandy is sold at this charcuterie – pâtés, ham, cheese and cider too.
