Le Marché d'Aligre is one of the most ancient popular market of the capital. As a rivalry to Les Halles, it has been called for a while "the second belly of Paris", it has been the location where the bloody barricades of 1789 happened, and also to the no less fierce events of La Commune de Paris. This hot spot of the 11th neighbourhood offers many restaurants for the enjoyments of gourmets.
