"Paris by Pastry" tours the city in a fresh, new way by tracking down the best pastry shops in town! The tastiest of treats are to be found around every corner with every turn of the page. The book features pastry shops along Paris's top attractions as well as a metro-line pastry tour. It also includes recipes from Paris's finest pastry shops. Savor every step!
Truthfully, this was just a flip-through kind of book - but fun to plan a future vacation around pastry shops. The format is awesome - no matter where you go in Paris, they've found a patisserie nearby - Notre Dame, the Louvre, the Eiffel Tower. Hopefully they'll have updated it by the time I get to go to Paris.
If you are moving to or visiting Paris, you might want to pick up this guide to the city's pastry shops. It is written light-heartedly and so is easy to read. It also describes some of the more unusual pastries and even gives recipes for some (but who wants to make pastries when you can buy them!).
Do you need a guide to the best pastries of Paris? There can be no guide more complete than this one. Mind the copyright date, of course, but give this book a whirl.
