The kids and I decided to check out a different outdoor market.  I remember reading that Ina Garten ("Barefoot Contessa") goes to this market when she stays in her Paris apartment nearby.  

It's a stones throw from our apartment.  If you would like to check it out;  hop on the #12 train and exit at Rennes.  Walk up the stairs out of the subway and you are in the middle of the market. 

It has what you would expect; beautiful fruit, vegetables, interspersed with spices, nuts, and rotisserie chicken.

I grabbed a 1/2 kilo of strawberries, handed them to the kids who followed behind me with red stained fingers and lips, devouring the sweet berries.  

I quickly noticed how quiet this market was; I felt like I was in a library.  I love our market on Convention in the 15th.  It is very lively, large, and has a little of everything.  The more markets I go to the more I am impressed with our own.   

This market is open on Tuesdays, Fridays and Sundays from 8am until 2pm.
