The oldest covered market in Paris, the Marché des Enfants Rouges was established in the early 1600s and remains a center of Marais life.
A new structure has replaced the original, but it still houses cheesemongers, vintners and grocers.
Better there’s a bounty of small restaurants that resembles a Benneton ad : Italian, Japanese, French, Afro-Caribbean, Middle-Eastern.
Enter the market at Rue Charlot.

The organic market on Boulevard Raspail and Av. d’Iéna is endless, and fantastic on the weekend.
Tuesday through Saturday at 7 a.m., there are market stalls along this street, between rue du Cherche-Midi and rue de Rennes until 2:30 p.m. On Sundays it is a purely organic market, or, as the French say, biologique. That’s from 9-3.
