MARCHÉ D’ALIGRE The market is located in a very lively neighbourhood and it is one of Paris’ cheapest locations for grocery shopping. There are lots of different stands which sell fruits and vegetables and in addition to that there are a lot of stalls which put out their products by the pavement and sell them for reduced prices. You can find a couple of stands of organic products too, which are a little more pricey. Among them, meat, fish, cheese and dairy products, also the Boulangerie Moisan (Le Pain au naturel) is located just by the market, which makes amazing bread and pastries. Nearby shop Sabah carries a lot of Indian and Thai products, as well as spices and nuts for very affordable prices. There is a covered market just by the d’Aligre called Beauvau where you can buy quality food for higher prices, such as products imported directly from Italy (we strongly recommend buffalo mozzarella and Parma ham).
