Grocery stores often offer a journey through his memories, sometimes a short trip. I propose a series of addresses that can both improve the fund spice cuisine, but also to escape a few moments, remembering a Laotian market or a bazaar in Istanbul. I chosen few places that I find indispensable. This list deserves to be complemented with any grocery store Italian, Slavic, Kurdish, Kamchatka, and Iran specialist, who all have a hidden treasure or a particular story.
G. Detou
58, rue Tiquetonne, 2nd Paris
Dehillerin In keeping with its vendors in a blouse. Address very directed pastry, but there are also funds of sauces, spices, herbs, local produce ... What quality! The packaging are often close to large, but it's always nice bag of 25 Kg sea salt in a kitchen that can serve as a pouf.

Goumanyat

Mariage Frères 35, rue du Bourg Tibourg, 4e Paris
Simply beautiful!
For Asian groceries:
Tang Brothers
48, Avenue Ivry, 13th Paris
All Asia is in the supermarket. It is a pleasure to return from time to time, and faster than a flight to Vientiane. 15 years ago, the labels were written in Chinese, all that shopping at the brothers Tang was a difficult and even dangerous. Since the labeling appeared in French. Well, that is sometimes a bit of Chinese sauces to choose some or understand the difference in the 83 kinds of fish sauce, but what scenery!

Velan - Passage Brady Paris
10th
Velan is One of the oldest shops in the transition and became an institution. Passage Brady deserves to spend time to time for its exoticism.
Bookstore greedy
92, rue Montmartre, 2nd Paris
I quote this address in this article and I quote it in all my articles. This is THE bookstore gourmet Paris. "It's huge," said the brothers firecrackers. This can be said on entering the library. Please allow several hours for a first visit if you want to come back, it is better put a few vacation days and provide snacks.
I made a selection of coffee roasting. I chose to talk about these places because it exudes a special atmosphere and participate in the bliss of a good espresso. These places, where flavors and patina of burnt coffee blend, are often full of history. There is an atmosphere another time, a bit like shopping for umbrellas or glove makers. Still run by enthusiasts who will guide you, these are delicious places.
