Venez avec moi <\/i>(come with me) 
\n<\/i>let’s \u201dstorm\u201d <\/i>the Bastille and Aligre <\/i>market area <\/strong><\/p>\n

Thunder storms like I have never heard. A downpour of rain… a smattering of sunshine … then more rain. Paris\u2019s stormy<\/i> June weather inspired me to learn more about an up and coming area: the Bastille.<\/i>  So, I left the kichen, put on my running shoes and ran east across the city. Mark my words, there are more and more reasons to head east and I am going to show you why. Venez avec moi <\/i>(<\/span><\/span>come with me) and \u201dstorm\u201d the Bastille and Aligre <\/i>market area (you do not have to run, although you may want to after you see the photos). <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Allez-y<\/i>  (let\u2019s go)<\/i> !<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

where is the Bastille ?<\/b><\/p>\n

 The Bastille<\/i> and Aligre<\/i> market area begins at the place de la Bastille<\/i> where you will find the Opera National de la Bastille<\/i> (metro stop Bastille). If you take the yellow metro line no. 1, you head east (toward Chateau Vincennes<\/i>) and exit Bastille<\/i>.  <\/span><\/p>\n

\"chef<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

\"IMG_6470\"<\/span><\/p>\n

The Bastille<\/i> area covers parts of the south 11th arrondissement and the northeastern portion of 12th arrondissement (which is south of the 11th). The two arrondissements are divided by the rue du St. Faubourg<\/i> (which turns into Saint Antoine<\/i>)<\/i>. This main street runs from the place de la Bastille <\/i>and the \u201cnew\u201d opera house (on the west border toward the place de Nation<\/i>. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

The Bastille<\/i> area used to be known as Faubourg St-Antoine area<\/i>. It was the furniture making district apparently due to the easy access of timber deliveries on the Seine as well as the guild restrictions for craftsmen in the 17th and 18th centuries within the city. At that time the Abbaye de St-Antoine<\/i> owned the land in the Bastille<\/i> area and because the land was not owned by the city, the craftsmen where allowed to set up shop and work. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"chef<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

For the most part these furniture and craftsman shops have been replaced with modern clothing and home shops. Although, if you explore some alleyways here you will find a few shops (i.e., passage du Cheval Blanc, Passage du Chantier, Passage de la Main d\u2019Or, Passage l\u2019Homme<\/i>). There are still a few furniture shops on rue du St. Faubourg <\/i>which sell furniture.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

\"chef<\/span><\/p>\n

You will find a collection of traditions, flavors, and cultures. The area is filled with life and energy.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"chef<\/span><\/p>\n

Unique shops, vintage stores, flea markets, caf\u00e9s, classic bistros, special shops devoted to Italian, Middle-Eastern and Asian flavors an specialities.<\/span><\/p>\n

Place de la Bastille<\/i> remains home to many demonstrations and public entertainment. But my interests were predominately in the culinary and I found this area delicious!<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

\"chef<\/span><\/p>\n

When I was discovering this area, it made sense to me to break it down into two areas: (1) the area surrounding the place de la Bastille<\/i> and the open and covered market on rue d\u2019Aligre<\/i>; and (2) what I call the \u201cPaul Bert<\/i>\u201d area.<\/span><\/p>\n

  place de la Bastille & Aligre market<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

The easiest thing to do is to exit the metro at Bastille where you will find the \u201cnew\u201d opera house. Walk east on rue du St. Faubourg. <\/i>On this street you will see many furniture and home shops. Many home shops that have things for the kitchen and table (i.e., Maison du Monde <\/i>and Habitat<\/i>). There is a Monoprix<\/i> further down. Bistros and caf\u00e9s are everywhere.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

\"chef <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

You will find Barrio Latino <\/i>on this street, a three storied Latino food and dance extravaganza. It has been a few years since I was here. .. hum … but I still remember the festive food and people dancing every where.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Continue east on rue du St. Faubourg <\/i>and turn right on rue Antoine Vollon<\/i>.<\/span><\/p>\n

  <\/span><\/p>\n

\"DSC01880\"<\/span><\/p>\n

This is a charming street, across from a park Square Trousseau, <\/i>where you will find <\/i>Bl\u00e9 Sucr\u00e9 <\/i>(sweet wheat). P\u00e2tissier and Boulanger Fabrice Le Bourdat<\/i> is up at 3 am every morning making you specialities from Brittany and beyond. Everything here is really good.  I love their take on a tarte tartine <\/i>and even their \u201cto go\u201d packaged item like caramelized almonds and marshmallows.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"DSC01037\"<\/span><\/p>\n

This street has caf\u00e9s and restaurants including, Le Square Trousseau<\/i> and <\/i>Le Bar \u00e0 Th\u00e9. <\/i>If you have seen the movie Paris, Je t\u2019aime<\/em>? One story is set in the Bastille area and one scene takes place in Le Square Trousseau.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

\"chef<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

Before you reach the market you will find Le Baron Rouge<\/i> famous for its fresh oysters as well as its French wine selection served with cheese and charcuterie.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"chef  <\/span><\/p>\n

Across the street is Le Pain au Naturel<\/i>, an artisanal bakery specializing in organic baked items. Caves d\u2019 Aligre<\/i> is an independent wine shop.<\/span><\/p>\n

The <\/i><\/b>March\u00e9 d\u2019Aligre<\/i> (pronounced \u201cah league\u201d) is open every day from <\/b>7 a.m. to 2 p.m, except Monday. This is the market where it is said that France meets North African souk. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"chefmorgan\"<\/p>\n

However, I found both sides had similar products and prices and equally lively with various growers shouting prices and how ripe and fresh their produce is.  On Sundays the market is at its busiest. The prices are overall less expensive than many other markets in Paris.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you are on the street rue d\u2019Aligre (facing east)  the \u201dFrench\u201d side will be to your right and the \u201cNorth African\u201d side will be to your left. Getting past the debate of whether there is a difference, both sides of the market are in the middle of the street and back up against neighborhood daily life which includes: fish markets, cheese shops, wine shops, caf\u00e9s, and chocolatiers<\/span><\/p>\n

\"chef<\/span><\/p>\n

In the place d\u2019Aligre <\/i>is a flea market which sells everything from books and dishes to vintage clothing. <\/span><\/p>\n

On this side of the market is where you will also find the covered market: March\u00e9 Beauvau<\/em>, a registered as a historic monument, it is one of the oldest markets in France. The steel rafters above are a reminder that hay used to be stored above.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"chef<\/span><\/p>\n

On the other side of the market (\u201cthe North African souk side\u201d) shops and caf\u00e9s flank the open market. Here, there are some treasures not to be missed: chez Fernand de las Savoie<\/i> specializes in cheeses form the Savoie region;<\/span><\/p>\n

\"chef<\/span><\/p>\n

La Garde-Manger, <\/i>a shop which specializes in the foods and flavors from Alsace<\/i> region; and chocolats d\u2019Aligre <\/i>(this is the same location where Go\u00fbt<\/i>, Th\u00e9 et Chocolat <\/i>was…in case you get confused), an artisanal chocolate shop which carries  chocolats from various makers whom cannot yet open their own place. Les Crus de Soleil <\/i>specializes in wines from the Languedoc-Roussillon<\/em> region (which is now producing some great wines).<\/span><\/p>\n

Rue St. Faubourg <\/i>splits into two streets (rue de Montreuil on the left and rue St. Antoine on the right). Take rue de Montreuil<\/i>.

Across the street is Le Chardenoux<\/i>,<\/i> a classic beautiful bistro that has been here since 1908. <\/i>Cyril Lignac<\/i> re-opened it in 2008 and the food is gorgeous and tastes every bit as good as it looks.  Le soleil, across the street,<\/i> is as cheery as its name sounds.<\/span><\/p>\n
