Yann Couvreur, a young pastry chef, opened his first tea salon/pastry shop in May this year. As his pastries looked incredibly tasty on instagram, my friends and I decided to make them our Sunday afternoon treats! Once we reached the boutique, we realized that there […]
One of my favorite baristas is now working at The Beans on Fire, and that’s how I got to discover their delicious coffee! This place, located besides the Square Maurice Gardette, is much more than just a coffeeshop. It is a collaborative roaster. As I […]
Originally from Australia, Hardware Société is a nice and cosy brunch place located at the summit of the butte Montmartre. I got off at the station Anvers, walked up the steep road and climbed up the stairs (wearing heals, I don’t know what I was thinking…) […]
Since my pastry friend and I were eager to try the Chef François Perret’s creations, we decided to go to the Ritz Hotel’s Bar Vendôme for tea. We already knew what to expect and what to order as we carefully studied the menu before going. […]
