El Mercadito Frances is this new market in Mexico that offers mostly French fare. The site is only open during Saturdays at the patio of the French-Mexican restaurant Le Bouchon.

What’s to be had here? An assortment of bread and pastries collection, wine and cheese that you cannot find anywhere else, delicious Provenal sausages and just about quality and flavorful food the French cater too. The items are expectedly a bit pricey, but you have to expect to pay high price for food this good. It’s okay to splurge on this, however, as the choices really are carefully chosen to be fresh, clean and top quality.

The other reason that makes this place a must-visit is the selection of fresh seafood. Polanco generally has little access to fresh fish and other seafood fares but since this Saturday market can into inception, many actually do come or the fish.

Espresso is served at the bar for shoppers, compliments of the restaurant. And there are several seats at the patio, if shoppers want to spend their Saturday morning here.

The Mercadito is open between 9:30 am to 1:30 pm only.
