Place Monge

We picked Marche Monge on a whim and were not disappointed! Friendly vendors offer a variety of fresh, local meats, fruits & veggies, cheeses, condiments and more. I took home 4 jars of mustard, 3 jars of raspberry jelly and a jar of creamy honey. We indulged in hot & ready, hand-made galettes for a little snack as we browsed the stalls. Loved everything about this cute market!

Open market on the ground of Place Monge metro station, selling farmer produces, ready to eat foods, or raw foods. It is open three times per week during morning until pass noon.

Quando si esce dalla metro e ci si ritrova a Place monge nn è niente di stupefacente....ma basta addentrarsi nella rue mouffetard Ke si scopre un mondo caratteristico ....semplice ...dal sapore retrò.....una serata in questa zona ti ri-porta indietro attualmente nel tempo....affascinante....da scoprire diversi ristoranti dove si mangia divinamente.....e un post serata piacevole....

J'aime ce marché. La station du métro est trop proche.

Un endroit agréable pour se poser au frais avec des petites terrasses aux alentours

I was spending the day in a cooking class with a local French chef. He took us here to gather the fresh ingredients and duck for the all the dishes we were learning. Chef pointed out all the local ingredients and what is imported. He obviously had his favorite vendors, as they tried to interest him in special selections. This market, as many as I found in Paris, are fabulous. Blocks long presenting a ton of diverse food items. Fresh fruits and vegetables that usually looked better than in stores. Various poultry- duck, chicken and premade pâté. Tons of seafood. Always a few cultural dishes, Mediterranean. Get of the touristy museum path and discover Paris, its food and markets.

Amazing little outdoor market open on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays right by the Jardin de Plants. Both are must sees while in Paris. We picked up the most incredible tabouleh salad and basil tapenade from a vendor selling all sorts of meditteranean inspired food including build your own meditteranean burritos!! We picked up a mix of decadent olives at the local olive and dried fruit vendor. Tomatoes were delicious and about 2.90 e for a medium bag. We also picked up fresh radishes and carrots. The vendors were kind and polite and were understanding of our limited French language. We had left over bread and cheese available for our afternoon picnic otherwise we would have purchased some of the most delicious looking cheeses and salamis at this market. The salami man has salamis with dried figs, herbs de Provence, and nearly everything in between. He offers samples and will vacuum seal your purchased salamis for an extra .50 e. Enjoy the sights, sounds and smells of this nice open air market. Hours are 0700-1430. @yogafanatica

The farmer's market at this location is fun (at the square immediately when you exit the Metro station), and the area around is fun to walk around. I spent about 2 hours wandering this area and it was pretty relaxing. A lot of restaurants and cafes in the area to sit and enjoy life.
