Beaupassage, the new lifestyle and foodie spot on the Left Bank, in Paris

This Fall, the Parisian centre of attraction is moving to the Left Bank, in an open-sky strolling area, hidden between the boulevard Raspail, the rue de Grenelle and rue du Bac. Conceived by Emerige to implant 59 high-end dwellings, this real estate project, entrusted to B&B and Franklin Azzi Architecture, invites aesthetes and epicureans to discover a brand new destination.

10 shops have opened at Beaupassage, on the Left Bank

At its feet, ten shops featuring craftsmanship and excellence have opened, bringing with them new and daring concepts for an unexpected experience. One comes at every hour of the day, for a family outing or with friends, to shop or for a gourmet pit stop that transforms our daily life into an enchanted parenthesis, at the heart of a revisited historical Paris.

A bouquet of star chefs in Paris

On board, the Allénothèque, restaurant and wine cellar of triple star chef Yannick Alléno, Daily Pic, the gourmet cantina of Anne-Sophie Pic, the only three Michelin star woman chef in France, Thierry Marx's La Boulangerie brings back bread at the heart of great cuisine, while the Salon de Gourmandises of Pierre Hermé is where the famous pastry chef and chocolatier hosts his guests as though they were in his home and finally, the Fromagerie Barthélémy cheese shop, is the ambassador of our regions. This entirely vegetalized space is of course dedicated to everything that is good, beautiful and offers general well-being.
