Food and Dining in Paris - Paris travel guide - Go Guides

Paris – and France generally – is famous for its food. Dinnertime is the highlight of any day in the City of Light, with the promise of fine French cuisine and some first-class international offerings, too. Even a simple snack during the day is something to savour, with the elegant and iconic macaron gracing many an Instagram feed.

The choice of dining options available in Paris is staggering, with each as tempting as the last. The city’s markets offer you local flavours in their simplest and most affordable form, while Michelin-starred restaurants sit at the other end of the spectrum, serving up complex and diverse flavours.
