Being born and bred in France, I like my baguette. Either with butter or jelly for breakfast, dipped in coffee or hot chocolate or with an assortment of cheeses later during the day.
I discovered today on Chocolate and Zucchini that Paris gives a yearly award for Best Baguette.
The winner in 2006 was Jean-Pierre Cohier whose bakery is located at 270, Rue Saint-Honore (8eme arrondissement). This week I am buying my baguette at my Montclair Whole Foods. They have a special 99c organic baguette. I like mine fresh and crusty.
