  1. Unfortunately the rules for naming your shop "boulangerie" doest not extends to viennoiserie. We need some clear rules for those products (and restaurants too).
    Those who still do and sell only home made products need to be known for that commitment.

  2. It's reported widely that these days, by law, a butter-only croissant is straight; and the croissants with oils or fats other than butter are curved. Is this not true?

  3. Croissant aux amandes is the best (I buy it every other day, from several patissiers in Brussels). But is very, very hard to find a great one. Thanks for the tip, curious to try the ones in Paris 😍

  4. I had the opportunity to stay in Paris for just one day in early October, and visited "Mamiche" that you introduced, and tried the croissants. They were so delicious that they couldn't be compared to the ones I had in my home country (Japan), and I regretted not being able to visit more than once due to my short stay. Thank you for introducing me to such a wonderful shop.

  5. They do actually get to eat ONE HUNDRED CROISSANTS EACH???

    HOW DO I JOIN??????? 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

  6. A total sensory experience, all the senses are engaged. It has a slightly elastic pull……I lived in Paris for a decade and now I am getting more educated via "Lucile". But also in the '70's the French were very proud of the quality of their food and I hope they weren't using industrialized frozen patisserie.

  7. In another video about the best croissants in Paris, a Youtuber called "Luis" says, the croissant from "De pain et des idèes" had a definite taste of vanilla added to it. So it couldn't be only those four ingredients?

  8. Lucile, you're great! Being a lifelong croissant-lover (well, almost lifelong) I was superglad to learn from your tastings and even more from the additional cultural information you provide. BTW, I bought your book. 🙂

  9. That guy is so lucky your so beautiful I've been to Paris in ,1973i was young man then love Paris as a young artist it blew my mind Paris is so beautiful I was I could return but money is hard I'm retired but I do love Paris thank you for your show you are just stunning

  10. À croissant aux amandes is indeed a croissant. Bakers actually found a way to « repurpose » stale croissants from the previous day(s): soak the stale croissants in a sugar syrup, open it stuff with the almond paste (frangipane), close it, spread some frangipane on top, sprinkle with almond flakes and cook in the oven until deliciously golden and crispy
