Paris Bakery and Cafe

Every month at Paris Bakery Cafe, French chefs lay out a six-course tasting dinner, one for each faux pas Ben Franklin averaged when attending Parisian salons. They draw inspiration from France’s diverse culinary hubs, from the fluffy crepes of Saint-Malo to the seafood and piment d’espelette devoured in the coastal city of Biarritz.

Those monthly dinners are the most lavish display of the eatery’s commitment to authentic French cuisine, which chefs enhance with fresh, local seafood and seasonal veggies. Additionally, master pastry chef Antoine Amouret bakes crusty loaves of French bread daily and pipes meringue onto flaky French pastries.
