Marché de la Motte Piquet

Quaint Local Market

Boulevard de Grenelle
Paris 75015

Some markets get so overcrowded with tourists (and prices that match) that it's more worth it to just duck into Monoprix. This market, however, in the residential neighborhood of the 15th has none of that uppity Parisian flavor. Vendors and customers are faithful, coming back for cheap clothing (jeans start at just 10 euro), delicious paella (at about 2.50 for one person) and a variety of butchers, fishmongers, produce stands, and local French specialties from wine to foie gras. This is fairly close to the British neighborhood, so most vendors have some understanding of the English language. If not, just point and nod. -Emily Monaco
