A bio shop on Boulevard Voltaire
This is an independent bio shop on Boulevard Voltaire, in Charonne, and what you notice first is how much of it is food to eat rather than food to cook. The prepared food section sits at the centre of the visit, and it is what keeps the place in your week.
The daily deli counter holds varied, balanced dishes, some of them vegetarian, portioned to take home. Around it, the shelves carry a well-chosen range of local products, fresh produce, meat and wine. The cheeses are the other thing to stop for: Tomme aux Fleurs, Comté, Morbier and a goat's milk Gouda, a selection good enough to make a separate cheese shop unnecessary. House-made items run to an original galette, small pastries and a chocolate cake, and there are syrups worth taking home.
How it works is simple. You come in, look over the deli counter, and buy by the portion; the produce, meat and wine are laid out to browse alongside. Nothing is packaged for show, and the staff are pleasant to deal with at the counter.
Prices sit at the level of Parisian organic produce, and the tarama is €4.50. That is the frame for the spend here: everyday organic shopping, with the prepared dishes and the cheese as the things you come back for.
The shop suits anyone staying nearby who wants a proper meal without cooking, and anyone building a picnic or a dinner from good cheese and produce.
