Departure Point
111 Rue de Turenne, 75003 Paris, France
We'll meet in the small square at 111 Rue de Turenne, 75003. Your guide will be waiting by the statue, holding a red Devour Tours bag and a Devour Paris sign.
38 Rue Debelleyme, 75003 Paris, France Begin your exploration of the food scene in Marais the French way: with a buttery croissant from a local baker. Sample some of the freshly baked sourdough and hear more about how this bread is different to any other you’ll find in the city! 15 minutes
26 Rue Charlot, 75003 Paris, France At a historic market in the neighborhood, you’ll try some specialty crêpes made from chickpea flour. Originating from the south of France, these delicious snacks have become locally renowned! 20 minutes
41 Rue de Bretagne, 75003 Paris, France It’s time for something sweet! Next, you’ll take a trip to one of the best chocolatiers in the neighborhood. Sample some macarons from a spot whose owner boasts the title of Meilleur Ouvrier de France – a title reserved for craftspeople at the top of their trade. 15 minutes
27 Rue des Rosiers, 75004 Paris, France Learn more about the Jewish history of Paris with a visit to this store, opened in the 1946 in the heart of the Jewish Quarter. Full to the brim with various delicacies you won’t find elsewhere, you’ll get to sample some of their specialties including a brioche stuffed with beef (or a vegetarian equivalent!). 10 minutes
22 Rue Vieille-du-Temple, 75004 Paris, France Step inside this old-school delicatessen to a food lover’s heaven. If cheese is your thing, you won’t be disappointed. Taste a handpicked selection of the finest cheeses along with some cured meats from the Auvergne and Aveyron regions in France. 10 minutes
28 Rue Vieille-du-Temple, 75004 Paris, France Next, it’s time for a lesson in conscious cooking. Originally opened as a protest against the fast food chains appearing all over France, this restaurant has made it a point of pride to make everything on-site, from scratch using only quality, local products. You’ll taste the difference once you sample their delicious French onion soup. 30 minutes
20 Rue de la Verrerie, 75004 Paris, France A modern classic awaits at your next stop. This French-Syrian bakery fuses flavors of the Middle East and local French ingredients into little “nests” of joy. These pastries are pure delights and showcase the potential in combining two delicious cuisines. 10 minutes
10 Rue Jean du Bellay, 75004 Paris, France The final stop on our French food adventure is, of course, a wine shop! Here you’ll meet the owner of this local gem and hear about his selective process of sourcing his natural wines.

Davide was a great host. As a chef, he has fantastic knowledge about food and wine, and took us to some wonderful places in Le Marais. He's a fun storyteller, and shared some of his interesting experiences he's had in the hospitality industry. He kept us engaged with his stories and had a great sense of humor. I would highly recommend Davide's tour!
