Does anyone know if PH has opened up this location as a storefront? Last time I looked, which has admittedly been a while, it was not open to the public.

[John DePaula]

Thank You for the gorgeous photos and the update! Bravo!

[Stephanie Wallace]

He did.

Poppy, Pain de Sucre is about a block and a half east of the Pompidou on Rambuteau.

Thanks Melange, that's just far enough from the apartment I'll be staying in to justify a treat or two after walking there.

[Patrick S]

filipe, thanks for the PH pics (I love that you posted a close-up), and good job on the pave! When I saw this the other night, I cut a slice from the pave I had in the freezer (I made two last time).

As it is not related to this thread i haven't posted them here, but I have more pastry/chocolate pics from Paris, from Patrick Roger, Gerard Mullot, Sadaharu Aoki, among others. You can check them at my blog (written in portuguese unfortunatelly) if you want to, I'm still updating it every day. They're not very good quality pics, but they´re good enough to show the goods

For those of you don't read Portuguese, you can try to load/translate the page using Google language tools. The translation is far from perfect but you can get the gist. Here's a link: Filipe's partially translated Blog: XOCOLATE

P.S. The page doesn't seem to display well in my up-to-date version of Internet Explorer but works well with Firefox. FWIW

Thanks again for the pix, filipe.

[Stephanie Wallace]

Also worth noting: Pain de Sucre is the only non-restaurant entity that carries chocolates by Jacques Genin.

[Ling]

Stunning photographs. Thank-you!

[filipe]

Great pics! Haven't seen this thread before.

Have you tried the yuzu tartelette and the matcha eclairs at Sadaharu Aoki?

[filipe]

My pics are far worst than yours, but it's a small contribute to this thread. All from Sadaharu AOKI.

[filipe]

WOW suddenly my posts from PH thread showed up here ehehe

Thanks for the photos, just emailed them on to fellow workers entitled "Whats for breakfast"

[BROWNSUGA]

Wow!Thank you for posting these pics! I am going to France (Paris) next month. What I am looking forward to most? The desserts!!

[Stephanie Wallace]

I hope you have a wonderful time! If you have any questions about patissiers/chocolatiers, feel free to ask.

Filipe: I had his yuzu tarte. It was amazing! It was the first time I'd eaten yuzu and now I'm filled with ideas for flavor combinations.

I thought it was amazing too. I had had yuzu for the first time at Megu in NYC, on a chocolate&yuzu cake which was delicious. Since then I've been trying to get some yuzu and I finnaly did, in Paris, at this shop called Sté Kioko (japanese grocery store) at 46, Rue des Petits Champs, which I've found under the wise advice of David Lebowitz.

Isaphan festival? I've had the original dessert, and am wondering what permutations Herme dreamed up...

[Stephanie Wallace]

He basically took items from his usual line-up (Emotion, Mr. H, Surprise. Click on La Collection) and replaced all of the components with some combination of rose/raspberry/lychee. It was executed very well.

[oli]

Boy, oh boy, I just keep coming back here to get my fix. These pics are just great. I've been sending them to my employees to get their breakfast juices flowing.

Great pictures! I wish I'd been in Paris during the Ispahan Festival.

*drooool…*

Would it be wrong for me to visit Paris solely to eat pastries?

Um, nope. I am heading there myself for that sole purpose, if you're in pastry school I think you can call it "research." Technically we're going to Italy for a couple of weeks, but the last four days of our trip I will be eating, um, conducting research in Paris. I found this thread while making a list of where I must go while there, I can't wait!

An amazing lemon tart. Something I almost always find cloying, this was incredibly light, with a filling that turned to liquid the instant it entered your mouth.

Any idea what made it different? And what's the green/herb there?
