We bought deserts in this French pastry shop located in metro Jourdain (line 11). We had a Paris…read moreBrest and a fig mille-feuilles : Good points : - It's super light and smooth : you can feel easily the different flavors in your mouth and the cream is soft. It's also not over sugared and not filling. It's really fresh. - The fig mille-feuilles is really out of the bitten tracks : in the middle of it there is a fig pate de coing style which is surprising and perfectly executed (not chewy or sticky) but melting. You' ve got the feeling that you're eating fruit. - They create deserts based on seasonal fruits. - If you insist a bit the waitress will be able to recommend you their specialities (the Mille feuilles is one of them) To be improved : - It's a detail (but the devil is in the details!) : the front window shop is cheap. Even if the store front is nice (colored cakes & pastries perfectly aligned) the mix between pink fushia and brown is visually awfull. - The staff could be a little bit warmer

I think they actually won lots of awards to prove this. :)…read more Accidentally found this place near our hotel and and jumped in line behind all the locals to buy fresh bread. (Hey, if the locals are lining up, then it MUST be good.) Ate the pain au chocolate and loved it so much that we went back the next day to get more. Also tried the butter croissant. Everything was so buttery and flaky and delicious. Tried to go back a third time before our flight out on Monday, but turned out the shop was closed. :'( My bf says this place is the #2 must-go to place in Paris behind Eiffel Tower. Behind Eiffel Tower and before the Louvre. ;)

I came here for breakfast while in Paris and was overwhelmed with all the delicious options here. Service is quick and the lines move fast. I was disappointed that they didn't offer hot chocolate here. In any case, we ordered croissants and pain au chocolat and they were pretty good but not very memorable. Perhaps not the best we ever had in Paris, but definitely really good!

The line works differently in Paris. The takeaway line is STRICTLY for takeout. If you want to dine in, grab an empty table, and a server will come to you. Let's be a polite traveler. The pastry was DELICIOUS as we ordered CROISSANT, STRAWBERRY TART, and SPINACH and CHEESE QUICHE. All the items here were FANTASTIC. We also ordered ESPRESSO with WATER (translated in English). What I realized about espresso in Paris is that it is less bitter and acidic compared to the-most-famous-coffeeshop (She Who Must Not Be Named). And for that reason, I would never be able to drink their espresso. I wish I had more time to return and try other selections. I would definitely RECOMMEND this café to anyone staying near.

Stopping in at Bechu reminded me that Paris is always a good idea. Bechu is an upscale bakery in an…read moreupscale neighborhood at the intersection of several streets near Passy and Trocadero. We had just arrived in Paris and I wanted to take my 10 year old daughter on a stroll to see how the natives behave in their natural habitat. I asked a street vendor about the best bakery in the neighborhood and Voilà, we found Bechu. It's a cut above the average, for sure. We loved the macarons, chocolate tart, apple tart, a few mini-bouche de Noels, as well as the humble baguette they make. The café looked charming although we didn't eat there. The quality is top notch and the place has a happy, buzzy, bustling, glamorous atmosphere. Not a destination in and of itself but worth stopping by if you're in the neighborhood.

My husband and I were on our way from Arc de Triomphe to Palais Garnier and while waiting to cross…read morethe street, we noticed that there were many customers came in and out for take-out in this bakery, therefore, we decided to check it out. It's definately not a fancy bakery but full of home-made kind desserts and fast food such as sandwishes, hambergers etc. The deseert price range is mostly around 3.5 to 4.2 euros which is reasonable. Burgers and salads are around 6.2 euros and lunch boxes might be around 10 euros. We were here for sweet treats after walking around the Paris for 15 km. We sat there and took a break. The staff were freindly even when there was a queue. The mousse au chocolate and creme de marron were all good. The strawberry tart was tasty, too.
