Madman Jacques Genin crafts some of the city’s most exquisite chocolate, but he’s almost equally known for his caramels and pâtes de fruits. His revered pâtisserie (lemon tarts, eclairs…) is temporarily on hold.
Pedigreed and organic ingredients rule the menu, and pretty waitresses run the loft-like, two-level room. Open every day.
This Argentian restaurant and traiteur specializes in empanadas and helado — ice cream.
This upper Marais wine bar serves charcuterie, cheese, salads, and sandwiches to go along with 5€ glasses, or a bottle from their cave next door.
This convivial spot in the Marché des Enfants Rouges serves natural wines, charcuterie, oysters, and brunch on the weekends.
Pho and bo bun are the only things on the menu at this vestpocket Vietnamese, where the seating is very, very tight.
A user-friendly (and increasingly omnipresent) olive oil shop featuring a range of top quality oils from small producers in Provence.
You’ll have to be buzzed into this upper Marais spice shop; the specialty here is saffron, kept under lock and key.
This lunch spot is run by the Poilâne people, and features tartines – open faced sandwiches, hot and cold – on their famous bread. Locations in the 6th and 3rd.
This traiteur/pâtisserie/boulangerie offers a visual feast of grand cakes and tarts, tiny and tempting petit-fours, chocolates, savory prepared foods, and baguettes to boot.
This bakery — named for the Italian cook who supposedly invented pâte à choux — sells only cream puffs. Tiny, adorable cream puffs.
Piping hot pies with fresh toppings, industrial loft décor, and cold cocktails from the full bar draw the branché masses to this pizza place between République and Bastille.
With its bright, bare-bones kitchen, crowded counter, communal table, and addictive salsas — all mercifully un-Frenchified — this upper Marais spot has officially changed the game, and people are lining up for tacos and agua fresca. Go through the unmarked door next to the stove and you’ll find a serious bar, staffed by Experimental Cocktail Club grads.
At this wild pâtisserie/boulangerie, you’ll find multicolored marshmallows, square-shaped tarts, and a baba that receives its dose of rum from a hypodermic needle.
