For markets, that page you linked is awesome, but surprisingly it doesn’t mention the fixed market streets. A few notable ones come to mind: rue Montorgueil in the 2nd, rue Mouffetard in the 5th, and rue de Buci in the 6th. I lived near rue Montorgueil once upon a time, and it’s simply fabulous–if you go there, don’t miss Stohrer, a pâtisserie that dates back to 1730 (their fruit tarts are amazing!).

In 2007 I lived in the 15th near Motte-Picquet-Grenelle, and there was a small grouping of really nice shops on the rue de Lourmel, including a fantastic cheese shop and an amazing Alsatian bakery that made a delicious flûte à sarrasin (thin baguette made from buckwheat).

OK, now I’m hungry…

Do they still live somewhere near here, or did they move out west?
