Sweet lovers must not miss the tasting of the legendary French crêpes . One of France's most popular street food dishes has its origins in Brittany. The name of the dish is derived from the Latin word crispa, which means 'curled'.
The most popular are the sweet crêpes, which are filled with fruit, chocolate or caramel, but there are also savoury variants, filled with ham, cheese, vegetables or ratatouille. In Brittany you can also enjoy galettes, savoury pancakes made from buckwheat flour.
3. Baguette - French baguette
If you want to enjoy an unadulterated taste of Paris, take inspiration from its inhabitants. They don't mind a simple baguette that they can really enjoy. Nothing beats a freshly baked, fragrant and soft baguette.
