Day THIRTEEN of our very merry advent calendar and I take you to the Saint-Germain-des-Près marché noel! View the full video over on my IGTV.

Starting next to the famous Deux Magots restaurant, the market follows along the Boulevard Saint Germain and is a mix of eateries and vendors selling holiday gifts. This market also happens to be dog-friendly!

You will also see, sprinkled throughout the video, images of a super fun raclette stand. They were hilarious! What is raclette? In one of the segments, you will see a man delivering the giant wheel rounds. And in another, the monsieur cutting the round in half. He then places it under a special machine that heats the cut side of the cheese, making it slowly melt and slide off the round.

Sometimes the melted cheese is put onto already cooked potatoes, vegetables, or charcuterie. But often at stands like this, it’s poured onto baguette sandwiches meant to be eaten on the go (preferably with a cup of vin chaud in the other hand!).

Wishing you all a very, merry holiday season.

Bisous and big hugs from France,
Shannon

🇫🇷 France 🇫🇷, forever.
