If you have a Paris map, you can follow me. Otherwise, just enjoy the tour. My journey starts at the apartment location: Intersection of Rue Montmartre and Rue Etienne Marcel. Etienne Marcel is the dividing line between 1 Arrondisement and 2 Arrondisement. As I left the apartment, I thought that I would take a little walk and then return to one of the boulangeries (bakeries) and get a sandwich. I started off going south on Rue Montmartre past Eglise Saint-Eustache. I walked through (on the edge of) the park towards the Les Halles Metro station and continued on to Rue Rambuteau. I turned right on Rue Saint-Denis.
I had bearly walked past two stores when I could smell something cooking. I saw a crepe stand. My stomach rumbled and mentioned that I hadn't tried one of these, so now was a great time to do so. I selected a basic one with cheese:
It took a little while longer for the cheese to melt, and then he folded it and put it in a paper container. It reminded me of a quesadilla snack, only the crepe was softer with a taste of, well, crepe.
I munched on the crepe as I walked and window shopped, turning left and right in the area. It was a pedestrian section of town, so no need to watch for car traffic. Perfect when you are totally distracted.
