👍Another excellent food tour, only Glace Bachir have I been to, my kids loved it. We will certainly try some of your Montmartre recommendations on one of our trips to Paris this year!
Another informative tour of quality recommendations! I have been to some of your choices and wholeheartedly agree with you, Alain...my mouth was watering watching your video! Bon appetit.
Always love your vlogs . They r the best . It really helps us when planning Paris trip. Just came back from beautiful Paris & did shopping in the pharmacies u showed us in your pharmacy vlogs . Thank u so much 🙏❤️
@@paristoptips The better weather will be there soon. I am horrified about the fast food chains, hopefully they will not become a "thing". Maybe France will be strict on the chemicals they put in there food.
We are a not particularly young couple from Toronto, Canada. We always enjoy your videos but you really outdid yourself with this one. We have made several additions to our notes for our next visit to Paris. Your opening comments struck a responsive chord for my wife and me. It has been several years since we have visited as we have been addressing some health issues. We have been dealing with our Paris deprivation by watching many RUclips videos. One thing we have noted, and not favourably, is the increased number of McDonald’s, KFC etc as well as the plethora of Happy Hours, burgers and the like. We will be returning in the next several months ( we hope). We will not be seeking out multinationals, burger spots etc but rather the type of places you highlight in your videos. Many thanks!
My pleasure! I don't have issues eating at McDonald's or five guys from time to time, but I don't want American standardized food to replace typical bistros in Paris.
Excellent tour! Problem: now I need more time and more stomachs to tour Monmartre! :-) Idea for a new video: Great restaurants that are open on Sundays and Mondays. It's a challenge.
Once again👌👍you should be designated a Paris Chevalier💪for promoting a true affordable gourmand experience for us travellers around the world! Merci Beaucouop Alain!🙏🗼🥐🧀🍇🍷🍾🥂💜💚💙🤗
Merci! Les calissons sont mes preferes! 💕💕😍😍 Bon! La glace Ashta de chez Bachir... pourriez-vous nous envoyer quelques cuillerees vers notre cote ici aux Etats-Units? S'il vous plait?? 😁😁😊😊
If you film in this part of Paris, you risk having issues with people there... And, honestly, there's not much to see. I did film the Barbes market which is featured on my markets video.
No, no health issues. Simply quite a lot of people who don't want to be filmed. As you can see in this video, ruclips.net/video/hP1dzQ1aW2A/видео.html another youtuber had problems filming in la Goutte d'Or
Our employer buys the staff a Lindt Chocolate bunny every year at Easter for a gift. Thats about 150 bunny’s. I’m in Australia and work for a European company.
Coincidentally the best Croque Monsieur (great ham, quality cheese, béchamel sauce ) I’ve had even including France was in Australia in a town called Creswick (120 km from the state capital, Melbourne). There is a patisserie run by a French couple called Le Peche Gourmand and they make the most delectable baggers, sandwiches and pastries (not cheap).
Alan, I'm coming to Paris on May 9th-16th could you Please help me with finding a hotel that's in the center of Paris? In walking distance to most of the tourist attractions. Also, how's the weather during that time asking because I want to make sure that I pack appropriately.
Temperature wise it should be around 20° and the weather should be not too bad, but you should have some rain. What kind of hotel are you looking for, and at what price?
A hotel I would highly recommend is "Le Six" in the sixth arrondissement near Saint-Germain. Also, in Montmartre, the "Terrass' Hotel", "Hotel L'Echiquier Opéra Paris MGallery by Sofitel" near the Grands Boulevards, "Hotel Odéon Saint-Germain near the Luxembourg Garden, and "Hotel Le Notre-Dame", near... Notre-Dame 😄
To be fair, Popeyes has some French influence since it's Cajun style cooking. The Acadians or Cajuns (French-Canadians) were forced to migrate from New England to Louisiana. Anyway, I'll be in Paris in a few weeks and looking forward to seeing Montmartre Cemetery and as well as Dalida's bust. No, I won't be eating at Popeyes, although I love their chicken and Cajun fries.
You know what, I like eating fried chicken from time to time... What annoys me is that the number of American fast-foods is fast growing in Paris. Btw, shake shack should arrive soon...
I always wonder why the French people find it difficult to pronounce the letter H.....such as, happy, hallo, honour, and may other words beginning with H... but i love France...
France is the country with the largest number of Mcdonald's restaurant in Europe. And it's a very creative subsidiary with a lot of recipes specific to France.
@ We see creative items at McDonald’s all over the world. In the US, it can be a satisfying quick meal for a small price. I have made this choice in Paris too. When I next visit, I will try to eat more sandwiches at boulangeries.
Yes, Paris is the gastronomic capital of the world! I find it repulsive and quite funny that those fast food chains have the gall to open shops in Paris or other areas of France, mostly close to major tourist attractions. Not to worry, the French are not fooled by fake food, if you look up the reviews of these places, they are embarrassingly low scores. The French demand quality and tradition in their food and drinks, even the children eat good food.
Yes.... and no. Most French people eat from time to time in American fast foods (I do too!). McDonald's is by far the largest restaurant company in France with 1500 fast foods.
To each their own 😁 I purchase gastronomic black chocolate at a high price for my wife, and I go for the cheaper milk chocolate at Lindt... or Cailler.

Hello my friend 😊I felt like I just gained 5 pounds looking at this video 😂Everything looks delicious 😊Awesome job 🎉
Thank you 😋
And to think that I still have to do a food tour of the Latin Quarter! So bad for my waistline! 😄
Poor thing 😅😅😅
I know, I know...
😂😂😂 C u in the next video 😊
After Alains videos it is good to go to the gym and work of all those calories......
👍Another excellent food tour, only Glace Bachir have I been to, my kids loved it.
We will certainly try some of your Montmartre recommendations on one of our trips to Paris this year!
Hope you enjoy!

Glad you liked it 🙂
Thank you for the tour. I stayed in Montmartre back in November for a week. Looks like I missed a lot of great places. All the more reason to go back!
Absolutely!
Thank you for this video mate. Absolutely loved it. Keep up the amazing work.
Thanks a lot, as usual!🙂
Always love your vlogs . They r the best . It really helps us when planning Paris trip. Just came back from beautiful Paris & did shopping in the pharmacies u showed us in your pharmacy vlogs . Thank u so much 🙏❤️
So glad it could be useful. That's why I'm doing these for!
what a calming relaxing stroll around the area! thank you for taking us with you
My pleasure 🙏
Great tour Alain , the perfect way to start a sunny Sunday.
Glad you enjoyed it, but not really sunny over Paris...
@@paristoptips The better weather will be there soon. I am horrified about the fast food chains, hopefully they will not become a "thing". Maybe France will be strict on the chemicals they put in there food.
There are still far more typical Parisian bistros than American fast foods in Paris.
Another briliant, and helpful, video. Thank you.
My pleasure 🙏

Posting this walking tour. This is region I chose to stay for 7 days.
A great neighborhood...
Great video. The ice cream at Baschir is interesting and I will go there on my trip to Paris next week.
Hope you have a good experience there!
Definitely going to visit some of these on my next visit in May. Great video.
You should!
Thanks for liking...

Good idea! It's true that finding one on Sunday evening is not always easy!

That would be cool!
Don't really know if this title exists! 😄
Thank you for the video! Could you recommend a good Gascogne or South Western restaurant there?Thank you
Le Relais Gascon at 6 rue des Abbesses or Chez Papa at 59 rue de Clichy.
@@paristoptips merci beaucoup !💓🌸

I fear that you will have to come to Paris. At the same time, what an excellent excuse to come...
Bonjour! Can you also do a walking tour of Goutte d'Or and Barbés? 🤔
If you film in this part of Paris, you risk having issues with people there...
And, honestly, there's not much to see.
I did film the Barbes market which is featured on my markets video.
@@paristoptips health issues? so something to do with sanitation and food preparation
No, no health issues. Simply quite a lot of people who don't want to be filmed. As you can see in this video, ruclips.net/video/hP1dzQ1aW2A/видео.html another youtuber had problems filming in la Goutte d'Or
Good Morning Alain.
Roflmao ...Of course....Lindt......Your a shocking sweet tooth Alain.
Hello there!
Well... Yes... and no! In fact, I'm more a savory guy than a sweet guy 😄
@@paristoptips You would have to be Paris's foremost expert of chocolate shops....?????
I'd rather be the expert in butcher shops 😂
Our employer buys the staff a Lindt Chocolate bunny every year at Easter for a gift. Thats about 150 bunny’s. I’m in Australia and work for a European company.
The chocolate these bunnies are made with is quite good!
Yikes, I put on 5 kg just by watching! Thanks for all the great suggestions!
You are so welcome! 🙏
Hello Montmartre ! Are you ready for me to? I am . See ya mid October 2024
Get ready to meet the Montmartre of your dreams!
@@paristoptipsI’m ready ! My luggage is set and ready . I’ll be there mid October 2024 ! Bises et merci ! Claudia . Austin Texas
Hope you have a great time there!
@@paristoptips I hope so too . I’m very optimistic about my solo trips . I’m
Also cautious about my safety as I travel .

There is a patisserie run by a French couple called Le Peche Gourmand and they make the most delectable baggers, sandwiches and pastries (not cheap).
Usually, when you're abroad and want to eat a good baguette - or a croque monsieur as for you - French expatriate bakers are the right choice.

That's because in French, we never pronounce it. Even in words starting with an H.
French chocolate is too dark for your taste?!
I find Swiss choc to be too sweet for my taste! 😂
Everybody has their own taste!🤣
you can buy Lindt chocolate in every supermarket in Europe.
Indeed!
And that's a good thing 🙂
Well…McDonald’s is very popular in France. Why?
France is the country with the largest number of Mcdonald's restaurant in Europe. And it's a very creative subsidiary with a lot of recipes specific to France.

It seems to be a brand that is either loved or not.
