I'm a HUGE FAN of open-air markets and I'm sad I was only able to go to a few while I was in Paris…read more However this was DEFINITELY my favorite one!! It truely was an open air market and had SO MANY stands!! Each one was so unique and selling a variety of food from cheese, flowers, fresh pasta, seafood, tons of fruits, and etc. We came super early because we had a lot of stuff to do that day, but there was still a lot of stands already open at 730-8am. However it was relatively empty so I'm not sure if it gets crowded later. We took about 30 minutes to stroll through the market but I could have spent more time oogling at all the yummy deliciacies. We picked up some breakfast foods here but I forget what stand. We got some pate from one stand, some delicious, super soft bread from another, some really juicy pear and peaches, and had a mini breakfast picnic. Everything was very reasonably priced and the food was super yummy. We also went to Rue Cler later but I didn't like it as much since it didn't really have an open market feel (maybe I went to the wrong place?) It was much more pricey there as well and I didn't see many options. Another plus is that this is near the tour eiffel park, so we walked over (about 10 min walk) to enjoy our breakfast! :)

NOTE: i did an informal study/poll of this market one wednesday and discovered that only 5 of the 106 vendors that day were the producers or even remotely 'local'. generally, don't be fooled by parisian market places into thinking you're buying from farmers; mostly you're not (marche BIO des batignolles being a big exception here). mostly it's just more fun to have a face to face interaction with a person you're buying your food from, even if they're not the farmer. anyway, i did find some of the BEST HONEY SOAP ever here and that was indeed local & straight from the soap makers. also, markets are always good places to find delicious street food.
