where o where can I find saucisse aux algues in Paris

Tried this Brittany specialty from the "Papilles en Fête" food fair last week. Now am totally hooked. Where o where can I find more in Paris?
A good half hour before the France-Ireland game starts, the fans in the sports bar a block away are already screaming enough to shake the building. Maybe my 160-year old building will collapse and make my question irrelevant. Wish me luck. Wish France luck.

    1. You should have written down the name of the producer. The choice for sausages in Paris is often pretty poor. If you find where to get saucisse aux algues, maybe they'll had Morteau au Comté too, something that is hard to find even in the Doubs. When you gently poach it twenty minutes and it is both juicy and melty and smoky... yum.

      I'm sure that did not help much.

          Soupie you are a genius. The package that I just fished out of the bin indicates: "Délices de la presqu'ile - Sarzeau". Now where do I beg and grovel?
          Poach...
          Précisement tonight I poahced it (chopped up) in broth with the new "extra-hard silky" tofu from the Korean grocery store on rue Ste Anne. -- Sort of heretic mais bon...

            1. re: Parigi

              Let's call them and ask if there is anywhere in Paris where their stuff is sold and whether they can send us some. This seems to be the factory: 02 97 41 98 70
              and this the shop: 02 97 41 94 81
