What to do and see in Odéon / Saint-Michel, Ile-de-France: The Best Gift & Specialty Shops

October 11, 2021 Timmy Ribble

Lingering over pain au chocolat in a sidewalk café, relaxing after a day of strolling along the Seine and marveling at icons like the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe… the perfect Paris experience combines leisure and liveliness with enough time to savor both an exquisite meal and exhibits at the Louvre. Awaken your spirit at Notre Dame, bargain hunt at the Marché aux Puces de Montreuil or for goodies at the Marché Biologique Raspail, then cap it all off with a risqué show at the Moulin Rouge.

It's rare nowadays with internet to be able to find a store that has a wide selection of games from RPG (and second hand ones as well) to family boardgames, miniature games and hobby material. A reference in Paris Staff speaks decent English, and of course gaming material is in French but you can really get your hands on second hand stuff in English as well

My husband and I visited the Latin quarter in February and we stumbled upon this treasure of a shop, near the Norte Dame. My advice is to save your money from the regular old souvenir stores and stop into this magical little find. I love my little music box (Clair de Lune). Friendly personal local owner who was happy to help and speak to us, thank you again. Perfect presents for kids, wives, girlfriends, moms, etc....
