In a city where Pain au Chocolat and other breakfast pastries are a dime a dozen, Eric Kayser really takes it to another level. In fact, it was the only bakery my foodie friend recommended for breakfast before my arrival. This one is conveniently located as a one minute walk from Jasmin (Metro Line 9). Not busy when I arrived around 8am on a Tuesday.
I tried both the Pain au Chocolat and the Almond Croissant and they were both phenomenal. Both crusts were flaky and buttery and there was a perfect amount of filling, plenty of sliced almonds on top as well! The espresso is served from a Nespresso and just reminded me of my Pixie at home :) The Pain au Chocolat comes as a mini so you can definitely have both in one go. Highly recommended stop en route to your tourist attractions! read more
