Bear in Paris, the Paris Boulangerie Map

 

Bear🐻 is as addicted to Emily in Paris as the rest of us. He insisted we get a chocolatine/pain au chocolat at Em’s fav Boulangerie Moderne. 

Bear is watching EIP in French with Eng subtitles. 

His fav chocolatines come from Boulanger de la Tour on the latest Paris Map

Mary already got her map.

Also on the map is where to get a chocolate pavé, my fav viennoisserie. 

Someone asked what a sacristan was. Voila. Go to Huré on the map or go to Arles. 

Most boulangeries  conveniently carry jams/ confitures. 

Btw a pronunciation tip from The Perfect French with Dylane - do not say boul-lang-er-ree. Instead say boul-lange-ree. 

Keep an eye out for pretty glass paintings outside. Eric Kayser has them on rue Monge. 

This year they won best boulangerie in Paris. 

Many Saint-Germain bakeries on the map are prize winners in the annual competitions for best baguette, best croissant etc.

Look for the wreath in the window. Emily’s boulangerie has a wreath too 🥐🥐🥐 Stay Safe PBers 🐻❤️

  1. What a wonderful subject for your latest Paris Map! I hope Bear got samples from each. That’s a covetable Luxembourg Garden tote bag in the boulangerie window. Love your watercolor of Emily’s boulangerie, too!

  4. Had my coffee and imaginary croissant while reading your post. Would be delighted to share the corner with bear if there is more "slurping" involved. Stay safe.

    The picture of the customer in the yellow dress is obviously fake.
    She is too skinny.
    Has she come to the boulangerie for help in looking normal?

  11. Received my map two days ago and love it, but it makes me very very hungry. Please don't be too hard on Bear and both of you stay healthy and safe.
    Hugs

  12. Is your map on Etsy?
    And I heard that Kayser is closing.

    ReplyDelete
  13. The Boulangerie map is on Etsy as part of a subscription.
    I believe Kayser Maison branches in New York are closing. But not in Paris

  14. This is a really good one! Makes me hungry, but there isn't a single boulangerie around here. Baked goods are sold in the supermarket bakery section and are prepackaged in plastic containers usually. Not the same at all as freshly baked.

  15. Way too many pain au raisons around here ;(()

    What a treat to enjoy all these virtual Patisseries and Boulengeries with you. I love my monthly Paris Letters birthday gift, but the maps are equally charming and inviting.

  18. Thanks for the link to The Perfect French with Dylane. Great teacher! 🤗 My high school French teacher, many moons ago, was very 'old school, only grammar & reading, almost no conversation ☹ and certainly not colloquial expressions...

    When I was in grad school in SF, there was a French Boulangerie near the campus. Their strong coffee and delightful array of French pattisserie was my favorite place several times a week. And in Paris, oh lala.

  20. Sometimes Paris has too much Oh La La in the pastry deptfor one’s health...

  21. Annebella I like Dylane’s simple direct French lessons on Youtube. Watching Emily In Paris inspired me to work harder on learning French !
