Maison Guyard - Paris 7e Arrondissement

I found it just walking around. The shopping experience is undoubtely great, but when presented the bill (which is retained by them afterwards BTW something common in Paris, do not ask me why) you get a bit of a kick!. So do not enter if you not intend to spend around 50 euros. But if you are well off, I honestly recommend the experience. Most of the products do not display the price (Foie at 125 euros/kg I remember when the bill was flashed to me), others once they are sliced for you they are not returnable, and the scale is smartly conceived behind the counter and some goodies. Also, afterwards, you have the feeling that you are not buying, but you are being sold!. So I recommend to ask them to advice you the accumulated price of the bill for each item so you know when you have reached your budget.

This was just around the corner from our apartment and it was like having a French home chef in the kitchen. A must in the area

Come in here to get your charcuterie, foie gras and many other prepared foods at this quaint French traiteur. The house made pate is amazing as are the sausages. You can even grab a tin or two of foie gras to take home with you.

Very small kitchen with very tasty dishes. the display window shows everything you can take and it is very convenient.

In Austtalia we would call this an amazing delicatessen and I am sure the locals here near St Germain do the same. Super fresh quiches and other baked goods, superb selection of wines and for the meat eaters, an array of French staples that seem to make the carnivores dissolve in ecstasy. Been here for 4 weeks and wish I could take this establishment home! Colette speaks perfect English and directs you to choose those morsels that are a little different.
