| Le Roi du Fromage, our local cheese store just around the corner from the apartment. |  |
|
A wonderful greengrocer, Gosselin, at the
beginning of the rue du Commerce, across from the church. You know a
store is good when you see so many little old Parisian ladies shopping
there.
|
 |
| One of our favorite bakeries, Kayser, on rue du Commerce. |  |
| Another wonderful bakery, le Grenier de Felix, just a few steps from the apartment. Not only is the bread great but it is beautiful. |  |
| Not to be missed is the organic market on the Boulevard Raspail each Sunday morning. While not in the neighborhood, it is only a short subway ride away. Walking through the market is an amazing experience, and because you are staying in an apartment rather than a hotel, you can buy whatever appeals to you rather than just looking. |  |
| Pichard, on the rue du Cambronne, is famous for their croissants and their specialty baguette called, Le Pichard. On Sundays the line to buy the bread stretches out the door and around the corner. It is about a five minute walk from the apartment, but worth every step. |  |
|
A view of the Rue du Commerce, the nearby
commercial street which has a wide variety of stores, especially for
good food. The entire street was recently renovated and the sidewalks
widened to make strolling and shopping extremely pleasant. The
neighborhood church, St. Jean Baptiste, is in the background.
|
 |
| Square St. Lambert, our local park, where you can hang out on the lawn (yes, you can actually walk on the grass in this park) and have a picnic or just lie there and relax, all in the shadow of the Eiffel Tower. Two other wonderful parks, Andre Citroen and Georges Brassen, are also within easy walking distance. |  |
| The view out of the dining room windows. |  |
| The view from the living room looking over Paris roofs and chimneys. |  |
