Description
What does a French breakfast mean to you? And what defines the perfect croissant?
This tour takes you through Paris’ best bakeries, exploring the historic Palais Royal and Rue Montorgueil areas, inspired by Joshua Weissman’s culinary adventures. You’ll judge three extraordinary croissants, from innovative creations to traditional classics. Along the way, you’ll visit bean-to-bar chocolateries, including Alain Ducasse's, where you can taste intense hot chocolate.
The experience isn’t just about sweets, there are savory moments too, like French cheeses served on freshly baked artisan baguettes, offering a full taste of Paris’ breakfast traditions.
