Latest reviews of Paris Food Markets app for iPhone and iPad
Worst app ever. Waste of $1.99. Only a few markets listed. Buy a Paris travel guide book. We totally regret donating to this pitiful app. Where do the good ratings come from?
A very nice travel app! It takes a little while to download, but is well worth it! The videos really give me the experience of visiting the markets -- the quality of the video is excellent -- enough to make you hungry -- what a great way to help plan my visit to Paris.
My first time in Paris I knew Id revisit it again and again. This travel app guides me to the citys many districts and their food markets. The maps, market hours, travel info, video footage, and descriptions make it so easy and inviting. Its creator Kit-Yin Snyder is a true bon vivant!
