This small shop by the Marche des Enfants Rouges, Paris' outdoor covered market, is definitely…read moreworth the stop. When I went, there was a long line that stretched through much of the block. They allow one group at a time into the shop for a fully curated Jamon Beurre experience. Yep, that is all you can get here. Ham sandwiches, but it's a much more involved experience than that. When you walk in, there is an entire wall with a cooler displaying every kind of ham possible. You have to pick whether you want cured or just baked ham. What region? They offer Italian, French, Spanish and then you have to narrow it down to the region! Then you do the same with the cheese. I ended up getting two sandwiches, the cured ham from Spain's basque country paired with Ossau-Iraty, or basque sheep milk cheese. My other sandwich was a French baked ham sandwich with comte. Which was the winner? I have to say, the cured meat from Spain was out of this world and in our taste test, was the top winner. I know, I shouldn't say that in France!

I came around 2:30pm on a Wednesday and there was only a very short line. They do take groups one…read moreby one so the speed at which the line will move depends on how quickly those ahead of you decide. The service is friendly and personalized. The owner is a very kind Italian woman who is very knowledgeable about the meats and the cheeses. She makes sure that you end up with a pairing you are happy with! They serve jambon beurre sandwiches which is basically just ham and butter on a baguette. However, you can add cheese for 4.50 euro. The decision tree really is: 1) cured vs cooked ham 2) cheese or no cheese 3) cow vs sheep's cheese. My husband and I both went for the cooked ham since this one is more traditional in France. The cooked ham has different flavors out of which we got one with truffle ham and the other with Bergamont which is a citrus fruit. We both got cheese: the truffle ham was paired with a buttery and sweet cow's emmental, while the Bergamont we paired with a nutty and earthy sheep's Ossau-Iraty. Both pairings worked beautifully! The baguette was perfect. It had a substantial crust without being too hard and had a fluffy and moist inside. The quality of the products was evidently very high. There is no seating inside so we took ours to the Temple Square a few blocks away since it was a beautiful day! Highly recommend you try. Not sure I would use longer than 20 min out of a trip to line up for it so I suggest you come during off hours.

It one of those places you walk into and feel at home..... Get Reservations... Headed back in a few months.... .....Thia is the place romantic and epicurian all in one spot..... relish it.

Get the tasting menu and bone marrow (they're famous for duck and foie gras). Good overall if not…read moreexceptional French food. However, the portions were more than expected considering it was gourmet. We couldn't finish our entrees. Good spot for French brunch as it is a top fine-food grocer and deli. Sit outside on the sidewalk. There is an awning/umbrella to block out the sun which was great on a hot day. Note founded in 1894!
