Hugo & Victor Pastry Shop

I was introduced to this place in Paris by a friend of mine who's a pastry chef. Then I saw their shops in Tokyo where they opened several locations! As Christmas is approaching, I figured I would give you another recommendation for all things pastries and chocolates.

This is one of those pastry shops where everything looks so delicious, it is painful to have to choose, unless you are staying nearby and can go everyday! The vanilla mille-feuille is phenomenal, the chestnut mille-feuille is deadly, the apple caramel pie should simply be illegal...

I am surprised there is only one location in Paris, but you will find everything you need to satisfy your sweet tooth: chocolates boxes for Christmas gifts, jams, pound cakes... There is even a vegan cake! No one can escape...

And remember, after indulging with all that, you need to sign up for a walking tour!
