About the route

We’ll make our way through Saint-Germain-des-Prés, stopping at a handful of cafés and bakeries known for their sweet side.

At each stop, you’ll try something different.

Our route includes favorites such as the:

• Macaron

• Crêpe

• Cafe

• Kouignette

• Chocolat Chaud

• Tartlette

Along the way, I’ll share the stories behind what you’re tasting, like how the croissant isn’t actually French, why some pastry shops need an official diploma to call themselves a pâtisserie and how two historic cafés went from rival hangouts to literary institutions.

Expect good coffee, easy conversation and moments where you find yourself saying, “okay… now that’s good.”
