oh my god…read more My first good Indian experience in 8 years in Paris. I've been missing good Indian sooooo much, it's become a required stop whenever travelling abroad. Definitely the best Indian I've had in Paris. PLUS, they deliver to my place in the 11th !! Sweet !! I think I'm going to order there tonight...

The food is not bad. The service is not bad. I was perturbed by the gentleman who worked there who…read morecontinued to tell me what to order (in a very pushy way), who tried to override our wine selection, and who stopped me mid-bite while eating my mango kulfi and told me to "let it melt, don't bite it." Excuse me, I am South Asian, I have been eating South Asian cuisine and mango kulfi my entire life, and I do not need to be instructed on how to eat or what to order. Another one of the waiters made a few remarks about my friend's French accent - which wasn't polite. I wonder if we were two guys instead of two girls...would they have been as pushy and just way too comfortable? Doubt it. But despite the weird personal interaction, the food was good. Much better than a lot of Indian places I've tried in Paris. You should try the Achari Chicken.

I was feeling a bit hungry walking around the area and saw the little pizzeria at the corner of my eye, their music pulled me over there and the guy making the pizza, joe, was super friendly, spoke English, and really put his heart into making the pizza. Will definitely give it a go again.

They each have all of your basis items and a few more. Some are bigger and stocked with a larger amount of supplies, others, like this one, are a bit smaller. This being said, this store has everything that you will need to make a great meal, grab a quick lunch, a fast drink, or get that other items such as cold medicine, bandages, or a cork screw that you need on the run. Speaking of drinks... This shop has a surprisingly good selection of wine. This is something to keep in mind if you are going to someone's home and need to bring a gift or simply need to sit back with a friend over a nice glass of wine. Overall, very useful shop!

When travelling, we like to be able to buy a few items at a local grocery (mainly water, for…read morerefilling our bottles for day-trips, etc.; we also get fruit). These aren't items we can really bring along from home, so depending on our destination, local stores may not be abundant. I had no idea what we'd find in urban Paris. However, we ran across FranPrix while waiting for a restaurant to open. After buying some water and lugging it almost a half mile back to the hotel, I then found this location about a block from the hotel. Oh well. I did not shop here extensively, but we made use of it one morning to pick up a couple of items. They opened at 8 a.m. These are space-limited urban stores, not some 2-acre suburban American mega store. Understand that going in, and set expectations accordingly. I don't mean that in a bad way; they seemed to make decent use of the space they had, and their selection was fine. I was happy to find this chain existed. These seemed pretty common, so there could be one near your hotel or near close Metro stop.

It is one of 2 regular bio stands at the market, but you have to check them both because the product availability varies from week to week. I go to the market on Sundays but they are open on other days as well - but I am not sure what days this particular stand is around besides Sunday. They have a deal for paniers (baskets) that is something like 10 euros for 4 kilos of assorted produce. Check it out - definitely a good bargain for organic products. It's best to go early to have a good choice, but late market goers can have some last-minute deals...
