A little
Paris, all day

Bonjour

Baked before
sunrise, daily.

Our pastry chef Camille trained in the 6th arrondissement before bringing lamination to New Cairo. Every croissant is proofed overnight and pulled from the oven at 6:45am — you can smell it from the street.

The room is all linen, marble and morning light. Come for the pain au chocolat, stay until the natural wine comes out at dusk.
