• Rue de la Paroisse - Begin your journey with a warm, freshly baked brioche from Northern France: le Cramique. Savor it while admiring the city’s oldest church.
• Place du Marche Notre-Dame - Next, wander through the lively and historic covered farmers’ market. Your first stop will be a tasting of seasonal fruits such as strawberries, cherries, or figs, depending on the season.
• Île-de-France - Visit the nearby charcutier and bakery to collect freshly sliced cured meats, jambons, terrines de campagne, and a baguette.
• Place du Marche Notre-Dame - Proceed to a favorite fromagerie, where a cheese platter will be freshly prepared. As you watch, your guide and the artisans will share insights into the rich history of French cheeses and the diverse terroirs that influence their flavors.
• Academie Equestre de Versailles - Continue your exploration of the market, stopping by a preferred wine cellar to select a bottle of wine to accompany your cheese and charcuterie. Then, head to the Royal Stables to enjoy the view and learn about their intriguing history.
• Versailles Cathedral - On the way to the King’s Vegetable Garden, visit a pastry shop to enjoy pâtisseries and macarons, crafted by one of France’s most renowned pastry chefs, formerly head of pastry at Le Ritz Paris. Relish these pastries while seated in front of the Saint-Louis Cathedral, which you can visit after your sweet treat.
• Le Potager du Roi - Just a few steps away, enter the King’s Vegetable Garden. Created by Louis XIV’s botanist, this often-overlooked garden supplied the palace with fruits and vegetables for over a century. Still functioning today as the National School of Horticulture, this remarkable setting is the perfect place to enjoy your cheeses, charcuteries, and wine selection alongside a freshly baked baguette, at our table tucked away at the back of the garden.
