Mon Jun 04 23:40:01 -0700 2007 13555 feedmegood 1 2630379 Note: It's Pierre Hermé! His Paris shops are on 72, Rue Bonaparte, 6th arr. and on 185, Rue de Vaugirard, 15th arr. http://www.pierreherme.com/ Use the Yellow Pages to search patisseries and chocolatiers in the 4th arr. http://www.pagesjaunes.fr/ciweb2g-pagesjaunes//RecherchePagesJaunes.do?langue=en Mon Jun 04 23:53:37 -0700 2007 2630372 13522 Dodo 2 2630427 Ahhh Herme, desole..... I know of his shops and incredibly delicious treats But im actually looking for someone who trained with Pierre Herme (a disciple of) and I believe the shop is in the Marais Tue Jun 05 01:43:48 -0700 2007 2630379 13555 feedmegood 3 2630428 I think you may be referring to Pain de Sucre at 14 rue Rambuteau (metro of same name.) Not sure if the couple behind this place are disciples of Hermé but they did work for a big name before and the place is incredibly popular, especially with tourists snapping photos of everything ;-) Well worth a visit.

Tue Jun 05 01:53:55 -0700 2007 2630428 13555 feedmegood 5 2630430 and actually it is pierre gagnaire... my fault! Tue Jun 05 02:00:09 -0700 2007 2630429 13555 feedmegood 6 2630433 "whatever" as my teenaged niece would say ;-) The place is still great. Most people go for the pastries but their breads are very good and they have some fabulous little savory buns. My fave is a pear/chevre combo and the one with pork bits (lardons), red peppers and olives. You can practically make a lunch of them (and they are far cheaper than the pastries.)

Anyway, here are some superb photos from Pain de Sucre and other high end patissiers: http://forums.egullet.org/index.php?showtopic=84371&hl= Tue Jun 05 02:49:09 -0700 2007 2630429 13522 Dodo
