Marché Saint Ambroise

About two blocks away from my apartment, on Boulevard Richard Lenoir, there's a market that opens twice a week, Thursdays and Sundays. I had been wanting to go for a long time and get some fresh produce and spices, but always managed to found myself being too lazy on Sunday mornings ar too late on Thursdays. However, I finally made it last week! And it was very much worth it.

The market runs all along the boulevard, ovrlooking La Bastille and you can find almost everything you want: fruits and veggies, confiture and foie gras, middle eastern spices, flowers and pots, etc etc... It's so much nicer to buy your food from a market, everyone was so nice, and also, I had the best falafel I've had yet in Paris! (Big moment in my French life). The couple that made them had a little stand with middle eastern food and gave us hummus and moussaka to taste.

Remebering those days during vacations in CR when I would only watch the Food Network for hours: "DELISH!" Said Rachel Ray.
