I love a good market - whether it be in our small Provençal village or the bustling market of Saint-Rémy-de-Provence a few towns away.
When I am in Paris, and on a Sunday, I head over to the Bastille and the Marché Richard Lenoir. Take a trip over - you won't be disappointed. Here's what I found:

Fresh Eggs - all sizes, all varieties. |
Located at
Boulevard Richard Lenoir
(between Rue Oberkampf & Rue Jean-Pierre Timbaud) you'll find this market in the heart of Paris and a wonderful way to spend a Sunday morning. Full of tourists and locals alike, the market has everything you need to get through your day - and then some.
