Miss Manon in the 4th arrondissement has my favorite baguette
Approve of the list! I’m lucky to have an Eric Kayser down the street from the office and Coquelicot around the corner from home!
I look forward to tasting through this list in Sept! Merci mateys!
What about Dominique Saibron? I think he belongs in the top ten at the very least.
While living in Paris last year, I had both a Gosselin and a Eric Kayser boulangerie in walking distance from my apartment, and enjoyed their baguettes equally! It is almost impossible to find baguettes like that here in Norway.
>Caroline : well you lived in the 7e, not far from the Rue du Bac, non?
No, actually I lived in the 1 arrondissement, in 7 Rue du Louvre. So, Gosselin was just around the corner, in Rue Saint Honoré, and it took me 10-15 minutes to walk to the Erik Kayser in Rue du Bac, which I visited many times a week
