There are so many great bakeries in Paris. You normally wouldn't need to really look for one. However, L'Autre Boulange was my target stop with a purpose of getting gluten free bread.
Location - It's located in Nation.. very easy to find. There's a board on the sidework indicating that it's got the BEST flan in Paris. :)
Store - very warm/simple store front. I liked that it's small and minimalistic.
Bread/Baked Goods - great selection of breads, organic, gluten free... Flan is what the bakery's known for. Although I wasn't specifically there for that, I couldn't ignored it. The flan was so deliciously looking. I had to get it.. despite the fact that I "should be" gluten free.
Service - As mentioned in the other review, the clerks were warm and welcoming. I speak a little French. I went in with "Bonjour, parlez vous Anglais?" wanting to make sure I could get the GF bread I went there for. Unlike some French who would stop at a "no" (I don't speak English), the lady at the front continued asking me what she could get for me. Upon hearing that I was looking for "pains san gluten", she went on and told me they had several that contained very little gluten and truely GF bread would be available the next day. She's very friendly and helpful!
Overall, I really enjoyed the experienced and loved the bread and flan I got. I recommend it to everyone, especially those who are GF. read more
