Ladurée, 21 rue Bonaparte
In addition to a must do list, I often have a must eat list in Paris. Although still bustling, Ladurée on rue Bonaparte has a calming atmosphere. In the salon with exotic Asian murals and a canopied ceiling, I enjoyed a saint honoré rose framboise. Choux pastry and pastry cream are covered with rosewater whipped cream and raspberries. A few minutes away, Gerard Mulot’s cases are lined with endless rows of intricate desserts. I had a duo poire caramel, with caramel cream, pear, and a biscuit crust encased in caramel. In the glam 1st arrondissement, Jean-Paul Hévin is a master chocolatier. The Longchamp praline combines hazelnut cake, praline buttercream, and meringue with chocolate and hazelnut coating. Long list of flavors, short time to devour.
