A fun place for breakfast or just to indulge your soft spot for French pastries :)
Amazing little French bakery tucked inside the Centennial Tower with a great selection of French viennoiseries, sweets, and goods. My personal favorites are the kougin amann and chausson aux pommes. The kougin amanns have a crunchy exterior shell from the caramelized sugar and salt enclosing the sandwiched layers of butter and dough inside giving this pastry a chewy yet fluffy texture in the middle. My other go to pastry is the chausson aux pommes a flakey pastry crust exterior filled with an apple sauce filling, the French cousin to the apple turnover. It makes a great breakfast or mid-afternoon snack. If you're looking for something sweet, La Parisienne makes large macarons with fresh raspberries and patisserie cream tucked inside the shells and aged for a day to have that signature crunch and chew to them. They also have a fair selection of sandwiches and salads here too. For drinks they offer fresh squeezed orange juice or coffee from Cafe D'arte which is a nice break from Starbucks or Uptown. The best time to visit this bakery is earlier in the day around 9:30am-11:30am after the breakfast morning traffic and before lunch. The pastry shelf is usually empty by 2:00pm. The employees are really friendly, taking time to ask you about your day while grabbing your pastries. However, this bakery has notoriously slow service sometimes taking 5-10 minutes to purchase a pastry when there's only one person ahead of you.
