Paris 2019 – Day 12(Sunday)

best site to buy provigil online Cleaning day, hard to believe we have been here almost 2 weeks so we arranged for the mid-stay cleaning before Shelley arrives on Tuesday.  We had our coffee and croissants and were out the door by 9:30.  Our plan for the day was to visit two or three markets. Sunday markets are usually small so we set our expectation accordingly.

http://ornamentalpeanut.com/sites/default/files/ There was a bit of confusion during the planning phase, it seemed when I made the list I mixed up some Saturday and Sunday market but were were able to make the adjustment as needed so our first market was Marché Alibert at  Rue Alibert, in front of Hôpital St-Louis, metro stop Goncourt in the 10th arrondissement.  The market was small only about 15 stalls but still had multiple vendors for fruits and vegetables and cheese.  The schuss vendor who also attends the President Wilson Market has a smaller stall.

 

The next market was out in the 12th the Marché BercyMarché Bercy at Place Lachambaudie, Metro: Cour St-Emilion on line 14 which is actually the newest metro line opened in 1998 and is a deep line with escalators and an elevator at each stop, we honestly can not recall being on the 14 so this may be another first..  After exiting the metro we saw a sign above brick arches, Bercy Village,  and we decided to investigate. We found a paved courtyard bordered with white stone storehouses and terraces.

The market was the amulets of all only about 7 stalls however all of the more important thing were covered meat, fish, vegetables and event Chinese takeout for those who tire of the classing roast chicken Sunday dinner.

We headed to the 3rd arrondissement to the Marché Enfants Rouges, 39 rue de Bretagne metro stop Filles du Calvaire on line 8.  After leaving the station and we walked down to rue de Bretagne and discovered many Italian markets, some thing we have not cone across before, however for some reason we were unable to locate the market which is indoors, we think we walked past the entrance and just kept walking.  By the time we realized our error we decided to bag the market for the day.

The plate actually come with 10 I had eaten some before a took the photo, sorry!

Sunday line rain or shine

A bit after 12 we made the decision to walk over the the Marais for lunch at l’as du Fallafel. We arrived and like many Sundays the line were long, so we checked in the the number taker and got our number.  We were in line about 5 minutes when one of the runners asked us if we would like to eat in the annex, of course we said yes have been in the restaurant multiple time it was not about Facebook or Instagram posting but eating their great falafels. So off we when and order the special platter and a lemonade.  As always the lunch was excellent, falafels with red cabbage, white cabbage, cucumber and tomato salad, hummus and sweet red pepper relish, with pita bread.

Time to head back to the apartment for a bit of rest.
