On a recent trip to Paris I rented a fabulous 2 bedroom apartment in Boulevarde Voltaire in the 11th arrondissement, and we were so close to everything! Bakeries (boulangeries), pastry shops (patisseries), butchers (boucheries), and my favourite – a marvellous delicatessen (artisan Charcutier Traiteur) filled with mouthwatering tasty treats.
My friends and I shopped here regularly during our month and got to know the owners quite well.
We tasted the most amazing ham off the bone, vegetable in brines and sauces, delicious patés, cheese and vine-ripened tomatoes (tomates). We had several fabulous picnics both in the apartment and on our daily jaunts – yum!
If you’re ever near Metro Voltaire, it’s a one minute walk to RONCERET at 138 rue de la Rocquette. You won’t regret it :-)
Say “Hi from Teena the Australian silk artist” – perhaps they’ll remember me!
