Hi,
We just returned from our trip to Paris and London, and I thought we would share where we ate. Food was great, if expensive. Bon Apetit!
In Paris, we at at the following places:
Le Petit
Pontoise, 9 Rue Pontoise, 75005 Paris (5th Latin Qtr) - no GF menu, but the owner speaks English, and we had no problem getting GF food. Restaurant was lovely; food was great.
Rue Cler Market (7th Arr) – we were able to buy rice cakes in a little corner store and get cheese at a fromagerie. One word of caution - it is difficult to get hot chocolate. Many places use Valrhona, which has a disclaimer saying it may have traces of wheat.
Bought GF groceries at
Carrefore, a grocery store - they had GF baguettes and croissants.
