This 1.5-hour walk takes you through the history of Parisian cuisine, where it all began. You'll discover how Palais-Royal became the birthplace of the world's first restaurant, explore the mythical Galerie Vivienne and its period shops, then dive into the world of Parisian cafés, from their origins to today. The adventure continues at the old Les Halles, the "belly of Paris" that fed the entire capital, before ending on rue Montorgueil where the art of good eating lives on. Between tasty anecdotes and secret addresses, your local guide reveals why Paris remains the world capital of gastronomy.
