With many thanks to
Jason Kottke
for the recommendation, I just finished enjoying a lovely pain au chocolat from
Boulangerie
Malineau in the Marais
about
five blocks from me. Crisp, nicely layered, and warm, just a
bit too buttery.
A superior
pastry, even for Paris.
One wonderful thing about Paris is the diversity of bakeries, cheese
stores, butchers, etc. Everyone seems to have specific favourites;
this place is good for pain ordinaire, this one for croissant, this
one is more convenient. So much to learn.
