Pâtisseries, Chocolatiers et Boulangeries

During our stay in Paris, we were fortunate to experience one of Paris' most beloved treasures: fine pastries, chocolates and excellent bread. Ah oui, les baguettes! Paris' most famous bread, nonetheless a delicacy to foreigners. We visited various pâtisseries, chocolatiers and boulangeries, which included the famous Paul and Gerard Mulot establishments.

Every time we passed by one of these places, we were indulged by the scent coming from the store and visually tempted by the number of pastries, bread and desserts that we saw through the glass windows. It was unbelievable to experience and taste the wide selection of pastries and chocolates available to eat. It seemed like we went into a candy factory. We had a hard time deciding what item to choose.

For a couple of us, the decision was obvious. For instance, for Sebastian it was the brioche bread, which he faithfully bought most of the time he went to Paul. Then, there was Carrie who fell in love with the Parisian pastries, especially the galette des rois; Michael and Alexis who were consistently buying the petits fours; and Punya who always tried to experience something new to add to his rich variety of extravagant meals. At the end, all of our selections were excellent and even when we were full we always we wanted to eat more. Everything just tasted so great.
