About
Since 2013, Chef Mori Yoshida has brought a uniquely Japanese sensibility to Paris's 7th arrondissement. A graduate of Japan's Nippon Kashi Senmon Gakko and former collaborator of Philippe Conticini, Yoshida won the title of Best Professional Pastry Chef on M6's Le Meilleur Pâtissier in 2018. His boutique on avenue de Breteuil offers elevated takes on French classics — Paris-Brest with black sesame, matcha tarts, Japanese strawberry rolls — all defined by lighter textures, balanced sweetness, and impeccable technique. Beyond pastries, the shop carries chocolates, viennoiseries, and seasonal cakes.
