Headed to
Paris anytime soon?
Expect to throw any low-carb regimes to the wind and
indulge in the best breads in the world.
For the
city of light, that includes baker Ridha Khadher’s artisan bakery Paradis du
Gourmand in the 14th arrondissement, which was crowned the best baguette marker
in Paris Thursday.
A panel of
judges made up of chefs, bakers, food writers and members of the public sampled
151 baton baguettes before narrowing down their choice to just one loaf.
If Paris
figures in your holiday travel plans, here are the addresses of winners from
years past that you may want to add to your itinerary. Note that five of the
past six winners hail from the 18th arrondissement in the Montmartre area.
