Collignon’s grocery

56 Rue des Trois Frères, 75018 Paris, France

Remember the nasty grocer from “Amelie from Montmartre”?
Previously called “Chez Ali”, this grocery store is featured in Jean-Pierre Jeunet movie “Amelie from Montmartre”. Amelie lived nearby (possibly, in the building behind with the blue door) and used to come here to buy her groceries, chat and listen to the neighborhood gossips. After the film, the shop took the name “Maison Collignon”. It sells fruit and vegetables, as well as souvenirs from Amelie Poulain.
