Four hours of orientation class every day is enough to make any CUPA student hungry (even with lunch before and a snack during the break!). So S. and I decided to make a few stops at the end of the schoolday...
First was the Poilâne bakery, which was a comfortable walk from CUPA. We picked up two apple pastries - one that was round like a little tart, and one that was folded over empanada-style. We ooh-ed and aah-ed over the stunning breads in the window display, though: check out this sourdough with raisin design!
We took the pastries to go and hopped on the métro in search of what is reputed to be "the best cappucino in Paris" at Terres de Café. The store also sells beans and a lot of coffee-making gadgets and gear.
Two cappuccinos, s'il vous plaît!
They came in these chic glass orb-like cups that helped retain the heat surprisingly well!
Both S. and I appreciated the generous little sprinkle of cocoa powder on each...
Coffee and pastry - a match made in heaven, non?
I'm very lucky to have found a friend who enjoys taking pictures of food as much as I do!
Makes even the most boring conversation class worth it in the end!
Bon appétit à nous!
