The 21 Best Cafés in Paris
"This sliver of a coffee shop on the end of the 11th arrondissement has a custom wood bar, upcycled tables and stools, and lots of wabi-sabi style. Folk music à la Bob Dylan and Leonard Cohen plays on repeat, creating a chill vibe for a crowd of regulars (many of who come twice a day). At most, there will be two people working the bar including the owner, Yuichiro Sugiyama, who takes the art of coffee very seriously. Sugiyama works with April and Prolog coffee from Denmark for pour-overs, espresso, and lattes—tea drinkers should opt for the hojicha latte, which can be made iced in the warmer months. All of the sweets are made by Sugiyama's pastry-chef girlfriend Yui Matsuzaki, from scones served with cream and jam, seasonal fruit tarts, lemon cake, shortbread cookies, muffins, and occasionally a Japanese pudding that's to-die-for." - Lindsey Tramuta
