Our dish — the plate we'd order here first

Baba au rhum

The baba, a brioche-like cake soaked in rum syrup, which the house credits to Nicolas Stohrer. We'd eat it on the street.

Stohrer

French · pâtisserie · Montorgueil, Paris

51 Rue Montorgueil, 75002 Paris

Paris's oldest pâtisserie, on rue Montorgueil since the eighteenth century, founded by Nicolas Stohrer, pastry chef to Louis XV. Everything is still made on site.
