    My name is Jay Swanson - I'm an American writer living in Paris on an artist visa. Paris (yes the one in France) has been my home for years now and I have every intention of staying here for as long as they'll have me. I write science-fiction and fantasy, vlogged daily for 3+ years, and love pizza a little too much. Now I make videos about visiting Paris, traveling in Europe, and try to share what I've learned along the way. I hope you enjoyed what you found.

    In 2011, we took a class at Le Cordon Bleu that taught us how to shop the markets. This was a two week stay, shopping and cooking like locals. In 2022, our sixth trip to Paris, we took a class at Jane’s school. What a blast and very informative.

    there are seasons for cheese ! In France, many artisanal cheeses are still made with raw milk, the flavour of which is closely linked to the food intake. In spring, they graze in the open on lush and varied grass supplemented by wild flowers. At the end of summer, the feasts resume with the return of the rains and the “renewal” of lush grass. During the cold season, on the other hand, the cows' meal consists mainly of hay, supplements and sometimes silage.
    Raw milk therefore does not have the same taste all year round. Proof of its influence on cheeses: those made with sunny-day milk, marked by the richness in beta-carotene of fresh grass, take on a beautiful golden hue!
    Some cheese AOPs also restrict the authorized production period. For example, Salers must be made between April 15 and November 15, with milk from cows “put out to grass” in the meadows.

    One of my favorite smaller neighborhood market is Marché Edgar Quinet near Montparnasse Cemetery - and Marche d’Aligre is excellent for produce.

    I would say Place Monge and Rue Mouffetard markets are our favorites, but, mostly by chance, and I haven't been to the Bastille market. One cool thing is that if the market carries on for a few days and you shop there, the vendors start to recognize you quickly. They're probably just increasing the chances of a sale, but, somehow it seems like more fun than that.
    The markets are the best reason to spring for an apartment or an Airbnb, if you like to cook. You'll get some of your investment back by eating "at home"rather than a resto.
    Thank you Jay for another great video, I feel like I got a short vacation and taste of one of my favorite features of French culture.

    We were in Paris for a week this past summer and visited Bastille market twice for the delicious Breton crepes & galettes stand. All I can say is go early because they are always crazy busy and close when they are about to run out. Also, for info they are modern and accept card payments.

    I did walk through Le Marche des Enfants Rouge on my food tour and we got a little snack. I would really have liked to eat snails and oysters at the seafood vendor there. Watched a UA-cam video featuring that and it looked divine. I also wanted to go to Marche Poncelet but didn't get there this trip. I definitely want to return.

    The walkways in the Bastille market can get very congested, and you can get stuck behind slow elderly people dragging their personal shopping cart impeding others from getting around. Also don't buy an item until you have walked the entire market because you may see another vendor selling it for much cheaper after you've bought it.
