Eat your way through a Paris food market

Forget the tourist-trap brasseries near the big sights, where restaurants can charge 40 to 60% more than neighbourhood spots a few streets away. The real Paris food experience is a market morning: cheese, bread, charcuterie, fruit, assembled into the best-value lunch in the city and eaten in a park. A guided food tour is a brilliant way to learn the ropes, or do it yourself with our pointers on which markets and which arrondissements.
