I’m French and today I’m taking you on a food tour of my favorite local spots in Paris France and we are starting our day with breakfast at a local bakery and you absolutely need to go to a
Bakery in France everything that you see here in this shop is made fresh from scratch every single day and this is why it’s so good so I got us a bunch of goodies but today we are starting
With the most essential and delicious French breakfast food of a croissant and look at this it’s so flaky so beautiful it just looks exactly like it should and it’s made with a lot of butter which will be a common theme today I love it it smells a lot like butter and
This part is so crunchy look how beautiful and I’ve eaten so many croissants in my life but this one is really delicious so this one is my all-time favorite pastry which people from the South call
A chocolatine and if you want to start an argument with a French person talk about this topic it’s called a pain of chocolat! So as you can see there’s two different names depending on where you are from in France
And it’s a surprisingly controversial topic if you don’t want to be made fun of by parisians call it a pain au chocolat otherwise be like me and ask for a chocolatine but for your own sake never call it a chocolate croissant in any case it’s a delicious flaky dough pastry with
A bunch of chocolate in it and you should absolutely try it so I’m going to eat my pain au chocolat! The chocolate is just so good yum yeah it’s good I have nothing else to say about it I know what to
Expect it’s delicious and by the way Camille and I are both French and we want to show you real French Foods locals actually eat so we decided to explore the Batignolles neighborhood which is a very cute and local area with Incredible food options so right now we just arrived to a food
Market called Marché des Batignolles and I really really love the atmosphere here it’s truly a neighborhood market and a lot of people seem to be regulars of this market and know each other which feels super
Nice there’s also a lot of beautiful fresh food stands and this is the one we’ve been looking for they sell homemade galetes which is a type of salty crepe a very thin pancake made of buckwheat flour that’s then stuffed with different delicious things we went with a sausage galette
Which is the ultimate street food from the region of Britany it’s a galette that has been stuffed with pork sausage and you usually eat it with your hands at different events such as festivals and sports games and we also got a galette complete which has cheese ham and an egg you usually pop
The egg yolk and spread it before eating it and it’s so delicious this is one of my favorite French Comfort foods and I absolutely love it it’s delicious and cheap with a whole meal for two people costing €15 which is around $16 so this area we’re in is pretty unknown on YouTube
It’s not touristic at all and to be honest I don’t understand why since it’s pretty Central with Montmartre being only a 15 minute walk away and it’s so beautiful and uniquely French and I really love it look at all these cute streets and shops that’s one thing I really love about
Paris there’s so many different independent Food Shops to try and we’re going to this one called Maison Castro which sells freshly made sandwiches with delicious Mediterranean French ingredients and entering the shop there’s already a line and it’s super popular at lunch with people who work
In the neighborhood and just looking around I can really understand why here your sandwich is made to order and you get to pick between all these beautiful French products including ham cheese and different spreads everything seriously looks so good and I’m so excited to show you what we
Got so we just found the spot in the cute Park we were in before and we are absolutely surrounded by Ducks who want a piece of this as well there’s at least five or 10 Ducks around us we’re surrounded
There’s two in front of me two behind me and they’re all trying to be extra cute so that we give them food they all want the sandwich and the sandwich is absolutely beautiful it’s made with fresh baguette bread and delicious products from the region of Corsica so here we have some
Type of pork ham called Coppa sheep cheese and a ton of olive oil what was the cheese again it’s delicious cheese I love it do you want to try it yes I love that this sandwich has so much olive
Oil in it that’s what I like yeah definitely love the oil it’s so good right and now let’s get ourselves some sweets so no Paris food tour is complete without a visit to a pastry shop
And you really have to check out this one here every pastry looks like a work of art everything is homemade by actual pastry chefs who have some serious skills and just looking at how beautiful everything is in the shop you might think this is going to be super expensive but here macaroons are
Only €1.8 Which is less than $2 so we really got a ton of stuff and I don’t know about you but I usually do not like macaroons they’re usually just Frozen cookies and they’re not very fresh this spot is very good and I’m very excited about it the people who own the shop
Are actually pastry chefs and they want the best macaroon of Paris award nice so they actually make it and I think like just looking at it they don’t look perfectly round and like they’re not exactly
The same size and the same shape so it does feel artisanal yeah completely you can clearly see the difference between this one and this one like they’re definitely not the same size I pick the
Big one yeah I know you pick the big one I give me the biggest macaroon you have you know France is obviously super well known for macaroons around the world but everywhere s macaroons like you can
Find macaroons at McDonald’s in Paris yes oh I didn’t know that yeah at Mac Cafe you have macaroons “McCarons” sorry for the lame jokes these ones have really cool flavors this one is salted
Caramel and you went with the pistacchio, yeah I took pistacchio let’s try them mhm so you want to share yeah yeah let’s share you say that because I got the big one oh no I regret sharing I’m like destroying
The macaroon here oh it’s a good opportunity to show you what it looks like smells good m m I love salted caramel wow there’s so much of it it feels like biting in a sandwich of
Salted caramel if that makes sense our next one is a pistacho macaroon let’s try it oh yeah this is a perfect macaron so good I think pistacho is one of their Specialties as well oh and you’ll see when
We open that box yes like if you’ve never tried fresh macaroons please do it do yourself a favor don’t go to Ladurée eat that type of macaroons it’s so much better it tastes so fresh apple pie is a
Very very common thing in France you’d eat that at like your family’s Sunday lunch and I even bought apple pie for Camille’s birthday last month I’m telling you you cannot make that stuff up we eat apple pie
All the time but this one is kind of the fancy creative version and we’re going to try it right now M it’s like such a Different Twist on a French classic and I love the vanilla cream
That’s on the bottom yes look at that if you remember one thing about French food is like you need to have the right type of fats everywhere and then there’s some pastries that truly are a
Work of art and before we try their specialty let me show you something I’ve never seen before this pastry is one of their original Creations you can only find it at this shop and it looks so delicious with its molten core of salted caramel there’s also a banana mousse and a vanilla cream
On top yum it’s super creamy I know it’s so good right it’s very light yeah well I don’t know if it’s light but it’s very light in texture mhm I really love that about French pastries because
They’re not you know like heavy we’re going to eat three pastries and we’ve eaten a lot today already it’s so exciting look at that this looks so good look at all this pistacho cream I am very
Very very excited to try this one this is one of their Specialties and we kept it for the end because it looks amazing there is so much pistacho in there it’s so hard to cut though
How did you do it I did it when it comes to eating I’m very strong wow Cheers Cheers oh my God I’m in heaven wow oh oh this is so good just so you understand there’s a bunch of
Pistachio cream in it there’s so much pistachio this is like the perfect creative pastry I’ve never seen that before anywhere else I mean it’s amazing I’m I’m like I’m feeling very strong feelings towards this pastry in France we usually eat that with dinner or at the
End of a of a meal and we tend to either have like something big that we share or have a bunch of smaller pastries I don’t think anyone eats three pastries plus two macaroons in a row like we did today that’s for you like big big sacrifice and for you

Un jour, je me baignais dans un bain de bière et une étrange créature est sortie du drain, elle ressemblait à une anguille. Il avait un corps bleu et un ventre jaune-vert, et de la fumée noire sortait de sa bouche. J'ai préféré sortir de la bière tout de suite, mais depuis j'ai des taches jaunes sur le corps comme une sorte de girafe. L'expérience n'a pas besoin d'être belle, l'important c'est qu'elle soit forte
croissants with butter and raspberry jam or damson jam omfg…
When i lived there, (im from the UK) I got a taste for Jambon Beurre. So simple. So delicious.
I was just in Paris last June for my birthday, I traveled with a group (travel group), and most of them hung around the Champ de Mars area and the Trocadero area, but I spent most of my time in Montmartre and Batignolles not because I had been to Paris before but because I am Haitian and I speak french and all the tourist areas were so crowded with Americans wearing their neon bright color clothes and I even saw a flip flop lol Next time I visit, I want to explore the South of France and I might stay in the Marseille Area or even Toulouse to catch a little rugby game.
McCaroons 🙂 Gonna steal that joke.
Oh cool.. croissant au chocolat!
I miss Paris. Always went to the neighborhood markets during my stays. Now May cannot fast enough for me. Excellent video.
It has been a while since I was in Paris. The last time we stayed near Place de la Madeleine. I will have to stay in this area the next time. If my niece does end up studying in France, I will have the perfect excuse.
In Spain le pain au chocolat is "una napolitana."
Hi how are you
All of the YouTube video editing tricks makes these videos hard to watch.
The content is good but the non stop video editing tricks are too much.
Vous penser qu´à manger les donzelles.😀😀😀😀
Oh I love your channel- I subscribed!
"I'm feeling very strong feelings towards this pastry!" 🥰🥰😍😍
You are making me want to visit Paris
The package of Wyke English Cheddar, prominently displayed in the front of the sandwich shop case, gave me a laugh.
Note: "macaroon" is not the English word for "macaron"; macaroons and macarons are actually two entirely different kinds of pastry.
Wow I'm planning my very first trip to Paris from NY and these videos are making me feel so much more comfortable about the trip! Merci!!!
How do French people eat so much pastries but manage to stay slim?
This is the must do in France 🇫🇷 ❤️. Unfortunately the bakery parfum ( isn’t smell🤡that’s for your feet 🤣) and taste of croissant, French baghete and many others products doesn’t come out of video clip
So where r u in this video?
ugh!…how can you eat these gorgeous pastries without an espresso?
Thank you ladies. A wonderful video that makes all of us hungry.
😊
