Marché Raspail

"This thrice-weekly market pops up on Tuesdays, Fridays and Sundays, combining the lure of a street fair with a hyper-fresh farmers market. Ina takes the Today show hosts on a jaunt throughout the stalls to pick up some snacks and picnic ingredients, raving about the produce picked just earlier that morning. She starts with the potato pancake vendor, for an “incredible’ hot snack. Visit for produce, viennoiserie, rotisserie chickens, cheese sliced to order, and so much more." - Melissa Kravitz Hoeffner

"A short distance from the Hôtel Lutetia and La Grande Épicerie de Paris, this market has been a staple since it opened in 1920." - The MICHELIN Guide

"With more than 150 stalls, this is one of the largest open-air markets in Europe, and one any food lover will not want to miss. Beyond fresh veggies, fruits, eggs, and cheese, there are plenty of vendors who sell premade meals, perfect for an impromptu picnic. It happens three times a week. Photo credit: Neil Conway"
