Well, they're Laguiole, and they have them here on the cheap and you can buy them in sets or individually. Or with the colored handles. Or with the marble handles. Or the cheese knife. Or the smaller cheese knife. How about a whisk? How about a bigger whisk? How about a smaller whisk? Ramekins? White? Colored? A little bigger or smaller? You can find something you totally need, or totally don't need, or something a friend might enjoy, and enjoy doing the shopping at the same time. They packed up my purchases, and knives, securely in paper, and they fit nicely in my suitcase. I think about Paris whenever I open my cabinets now and can't wait to stop by the next time I'm in the Marais. I love this neighborhoody dishery/platery!!!

Wonderful selection of cookware and bakeware in Paris…read more It's not a far walk from the metro station through some quaint Paris neighborhoods. The store is not huge but has a lot of selection crammed into a modest space. They have products from all over the world and all sorts of items for cooking and baking including pans of all kinds, small appliances, fondant, silicone molds, colorings, and so much more. The staff were friendly, spoke English, and seemed happy to help. It was super hot in the store, though. Check their hours as they close for an hour mid-day on Saturday. We found a few silicone mats (Silpats) for baking macarons, but be warned that the sizes are not exactly the same as those sold in the U.S., so they might not perfectly fit your baking sheets. They had the versions for bread as well (Silpans). Prices seemed quite good compared to prices paid in the U.S. probably since these particular items are made in France. This was definitely a fun place to grab a few baking items!

This place is awesome! They have so much stuff any chef or baker could need. I could have spent a…read morelot longer in the store but was with my family and we were short on time. There were so many molds and tools and everything! I only ended up getting some great pastry bags, a rose mold and a few other small things. If I had more time I would have purchased a knife or two, there are some nice ones. The store is in a perfect location. It's within walking distance from a mall and Notre-dame isn't too far. If or when I'm ever back in Paris I plan on buying a lot more. If you're in to baking or cooking don't skip this place!

Luc was our guide and chef, and did a really great job. We enjoyed shopping for ingredients at the market just a few blocks away from the Le Foodist kitchen. Once back to the kitchen, Luc gave us the run down of what we would be making. Instructions were clear, and we all worked together to put a 3 course lunch together. I even learned a few cool new techniques such as a simple "sous vide" by tightly wrapping chicken in plastic wrap and cooking in hot water. Fun, educational and delicious. They offer a variety of different classes and I would highly recommend when visiting Paris.

La Trésorerie near République is a bright, modern Swedish style houseware/kitchen store that is…read moreworth browsing even if you think you have everything you need (they are working on an English version of their website, but they have people who speak English answering their phone lines). I don't really have room for any more pots and pans, but it's always fun to browse. They have utensils from butter spreaders to zesters, and tea and coffee sets and cups give you an option of making a beverage at home. Lights, tables, throws, curtains, and coordinated linens to enhance your decor. They even have practical things like cleaning supplies and tools. The most practical part of this store was their attached cafe, with Swedish snacks and sweets to sustain you as you shop:) Prices are reasonable, neither the lowest and nor the highest for brand names and types of products; you may find lower prices in the big department stores during sales, but this place will have less crowds and better service.

The shop is beautifully merchandised with items from Europe and Japan. I spent 90 Euros and then went to eat in the little cafe attached. When my friend and I were finished eating we walked through the shop again. I took a couple of photos of some nice displays. As we were leaving the store, a sales person approached us with a suspicious look and started asking questions as to what we were doing there. I am not sure if she thought I had been stealing or she saw me take the two photos (of displays) and was angry. Nevertheless. I explained to her that I myself was a shop owner, was excited to see many of the same designers and admired the merchandising. I told her I actually personally knew some of the designers (which is true) and I thought that might be of interest to her. She was still suspicious. I told her I had just spent the 90 Euros at her shop. She never smiled or apologized. Furthermore, the woman that rang up my sale was unfriendly. When I asked if she could wrap the delicate ceramics, she made no real effort and seemed annoyed. It is really a shame because it is a beautiful store and very well curated. They need some customer service lessons! I am afraid I will not return.
