With Thanksgiving just around the corner, I began weighing my poultry options. I could roast a…read morecouple chickens or try to find a turkey. In France, turkeys are generally eaten around Christmastime, and therefore they're a bit difficult to find around November. Not wanting to pay 12 euros a kilo for a bird at the Thanksgiving store, I went to my neighborhood boucherie to order the bird. "Bien sur!" they said, and also mentioned that two orders had already been placed for Thursday. Today I went to pick up my Turkey. The butcher commented "c'est une belle dinde!" I suppose that only a man of the meat trade could lovingly look at a turkey carcass and say that. But I had to agree. At a little over 4 kilograms, and costing around 7 euros a kilo, it was definitely less expensive than ordering one in the Marais. The nice butcher used a torch to burn off any remaining feathers, and even partially trussed the bird for me; I mentioned that I was going to stuff her with vegetables and aromatics. Since he didn't have a plastic bag large enough, he gave me a nice reusable canvas bag with the boucherie logo on it. Now that's service! I also noticed a group of teenagers on break from school ordering roasted chicken and potatoes. The other meats in the cold case looked fresh; I think next time I'll try their pâté, some sausages, or even some poulet rôti.

Shall I compare thee to a California's Erewhon?…read more Y'all know I can be wowed by a fabulous grocery store. This one is surely opulent, but crowded out the wazoo. The North American section made me giggle. I grabbed some fancy French mustards and cookies to bring home for friends and family. Unsure if any locals actually come here or if it's ALL tourists. The layout was extremely confusing to me. Now, I'm sure there are some simply fantastic elements to this store that evaded me due to the sea of people inside. But, I think Erewhon had more going for it. Artistic, clean, bountiful displays of produce. More organization, better lighting, etc. I felt like I could actually see the products at Erewhon, whereas here I was fighting with a lot of noise.

I especially loved the prepared meat in the stall near the entrance (they have many prepared items to choose from--I ended up loving the duck foie gras and duck rillette). Also, people were helpful and willing to deal with my poor French :) As another reviewer mentioned, there aren't many (perhaps any) ready-to-way meals. But I wasn't looking for that, and I found the quality to be fantastic.

Their sandwiches are HUGE and are served on traditional Jewish brioche-like buns with poppy seeds and sautéed onions. Delish! This is a really a meat lovers spot, their pastrami and other sliced meats are the star of the show as well as their giant burgers. They have a very bustling restaurant that gets packed at lunch time but you can also order to go. On a recent visit to the hood, I ordered one 11€50 pastrami sandwich+soft+dessert combo and also picked up some of their fabulous roasted turkey and some homemade Shabbat meat patties for dinner that night. If you find yourself in this part of town definitely head to Chez Victor for a true taste of Jewish deliciousness!

Even if it is Kosher and you can't cook it the proper way don't put it on the menu.
