"Chez Isaac keeps it simple—and it works. Behind the bakery’s nondescript blue storefront on a well-trod tourist street in Montmartre, you’ll find a handful of classic pastries like éclairs and deeply bronzed chouquettes, one of the city’s best baguettes, pains au chocolat—and the prototype for a classic Parisian croissant. It explodes into a flurry of flakes the moment you bite into it. And while it totally delivers in the flavor department, it’s light enough to keep you energized for a climb to marvel at some of the city’s best views without needing a nap first." - Emily Monaco
