What didn’t I eat in Paris?

Well, I sort of went a little crazy. I had my beloved praluline from Pralus.

La Folie from La Patisserie des Reves.

I picked up an apricot-pistachio escargot from a local boulangerie. Pourquoi pas?

That was after my second almond croissant from Eric Kayser.

My first almond croissant was from Boulangerie Gosselin.

Then there were my beautiful chocolate chip cookies from Lola's.

And chocolat chaud in the tearoom of Angelina.

I didn't skimp on dessert either. Le pain perdu...

... and a Grand Marnier soufflé. Miam.

However, I never did get my Nutella crepe.

Chocolate soufflé cupcakes

I've always been a fan of Kyotofu. Needless to say, it's been awhile since I'd visited but when I heard New York Magazine touted their chocolate soufflé cupcakes the best in the city, it was the perfect excuse to go.

I'll take three, please!

They pair perfectly with a glass of Cote du Rhone.

Dessert Blitz: Caramel Soufflé

In a few weeks' time, I will be back in New York. I, of course, have mixed feelings about this. But one thing is for sure: I have a lot of sweets to get through. Today…

Desserts at l’Atelier de Joel Robuchon

The other day, I had the sumptuous pleasure of lunching at the new l’Atelier de Joel Robuchon. After seeing a neighbor’s golden caramel soufflé, I had to order dessert.

And after I finished dessert, pastry chef Francois Benot, shared another little creation with me: granita with banana, passionfruit and rum, topped with cream.

Holiday decadence, to be sure.

Tell me if there’s anything you want to sample vicariously through me… it would be a honor. And my pleasure.
