At Maison Verot, locals stand in line to stock up on all kinds of elaborate goodies. Try their specialty, pâté en croûte. With multiple locations across the city, we like the Rue Notre Dame des Champs the most to gather snacks for a picnic in the nearby Jardin du Luxembourg.

The oldest department store in Paris with the most excellently curated collection. You cannot forget to visit La Grande Épicerie de Paris, their amazing food section, but definitely don't go here when you're hungry. Pop in for a coffee break or a quick lunch at Rose Bakery Tea Room, too!

In a city concentrated with bistros, brasseries, and gourmet dining it's hard to pin point to an address. Though, when in the 6th, the arrondissement of the Luxembourg Gardens and the Saint-Sulpice Church, it's only apt to head to Le Petite Lutetia for a golden, crusted pate au for gras and towering Paris-Brest for dessert. With a terrace spilling with merry wine drinkers and an interior lined with mirrored walls, tightly-packed tables, and baroque-coloured oil paintings, it's the quintessential nouveau bistro. 

This charming romantic restaurant is the epitome of classic French bistro. The rich & hearty classic dishes like boeuf Bourguignon & duck confit are to die for! We have to warn that their portions tend to be quite generous, but don't worry, they offer several half orders!
