Our guide, Marina, had us taste a ton of fantastic meat stuffs here. For those who are adventurous, you will be rewarded with some of the most delicious morsels of food that you can find anywhere. It's interesting because the owner here, unlike in the US, will actually go out to the farms to select the cows that they want to use in the store and they will then sell meat from that cow over the next couple of weeks at their store. You can see their certifications hanging on the wall and on the ceiling to indicate that you're getting the best and the freshest. Here we tried the rillon/french pork belly as well as a pork sausage with garlic. We also happened to get a pate de campagne, pork ham with parsley, goose meat terrine and a rosette de lyon. By far my favorites were the pork belly and pork sausage. Really good stuff! Make sure to pick up some bread from the boulangerie down the street to then serve with the meat!

Wow--what a look of disgust I got from him! He reluctantly washed his hands and then proceeded to touch the rotisserie chicken! I caught him tossing scraps of fat, skin and bone in the bag! How horrible! The shop should be closed down!

We must have stopped here every single day…read more Aside from the delicious wares (esp. the foie pate), the pleasure of watching the friendly and uniformly gorgeous guys behind the counter made my day. They're constantly moving with an incredible amount of energy - I have no idea how they possible manage to make it through the day! Buy some bread at the boulangerie next door and you're perfectly set for a lunch, breakfast or dinner.

One of the best you'll find, they sell a huge volume of roasted chickens which are excellent but…read moreit's of course a full butcher shop including just about any meat you would want. House made pates are fantastic, and we also enjoyed their duck confit. The space is small of course (welcome to France), and there's almost always a line because people know this is the place to shop, but you should join them. If you want, they sell wine and various complementary items but for meat you won't go wrong at Boucherie Bourdin.

The veal tartare was the best I've ever had. Go here and you'll probably want to go back at the end. It was divine.
