patisserie poupon

it's the little things that matter, even when it comes to little pleasures in life. every once in a while you have to revisit a classic to see how things should really be done. that's the feeling i had when i visited the classic french cafe,patisseriepoupon, located in the old jonestown area on baltimore street a few weeks ago.

a.patisseriepoupon is the consummate french café with delicious espressos, divines pastries and a charming, quaint ambiance. the mouth-watering quiches and pastries make it all the more perfect.

patisserie poupon pleases my (wanna be) parisian palette. try to say that five times fast. fortunately, you don't have to! but you can experience relatively authentic french café fare on the northerly outskirts of georgetown. we discoveredpatisseriepoupon a few weeks ago owing to an express article on where to locally purchase a king cake, which we promptly ordered for a mardi gras celebration. their non-traditional but absolutely delicious version was a buttery croissant ring tinged with cinnamon and sugar, and contained a small king. so thoroughly impressed with the cake, we obliged our taste buds once more and ventured last weekend to the small storefront cafe on wisconsin avenue. the line may be long, but it is absolutely worth the wait. opt for one of the savory selections, like the pate and cornichons on homemade brioche. its intense flavors were simultaneously earthy, buttery, and tart. or select the more traditional baguette jambon fromage if your appetite is heartier. the

perfect cake!. thepatisseriepoupon is the only authentic french bakery in the baltimore area. when you walk in your eyes may pop out of your head when you see the out of this world pastries and cakes.

my husband was just best man this past weekend and the bride and groom got their cake from here. i am still working on finding out which cake it was they exactly got but it was chocolate with a raspberry filling. the look of the cake was such a sight to see it was hard to watch them cut it. (i will update this post once i find out the name of the cake).

my husband and i picked up the cake for them saturday morning (parking can be tricky) but where very impressed with everything we saw an tasted! i can't wait to go back and try some other things!
