Self-guided food tours in Paris

Discover French gastronomy through locals' hidden gems

Local Flavorists is not your typical Paris food tour

Rather than stacking quick tastings, this self-guided culinary tour gives space to real moments of enjoyment. Some stops invite you to sit down and take your time with full-size French dishes. Others are meant to be enjoyed on the go, as you peacefully stroll through the city.

No guide to follow, no groups, no running from one bite to the next.

​It's just you, savoring the moment, and experiencing Paris like a local.

Here, the guide steps aside and is replaced by a thoughtfully crafted booklet, letting you:

TASTE
sweet and savory classics

From warm, savory dishes to delicate sweet treats, each venue lets you savor and learn a little piece of French tradition.​

OUR LOCAL FLAVORISTS

Because great food always starts with great people, here are the artisans who give this self-guided food tour its soul.

Hi, I'm Dana!

I created Local Flavorists for travelers who, like me, enjoy taking their time and discovering a place through its food, without overthinking where to go next.

For me, the best traditional French food isn’t found in trendy, Instagram-famous spots, but in those quiet hidden gems locals go back to again and again, and that’s exactly what I want to help you discover.
