French pastries are legendary for their almost-lighter-than-air properties but would you be surpised to
learn that Philippe Mouret, our own local baker had an almost- lighter-than-air legend of his own?First donning his baking mits at the age of 15, he packed his heavenly recipes along with a
parachute when his mother country came-a-calling a few years later. When the French military paratrooper wasn't lofting through the clouds over Champagne, France, he was performing pastry duties for his
general in Madagascar. It was that performance above-and- beyond that of other bakers that landed him gently with Hilton Hotels after the service. "An American In Paris" But it took Debra, a down-to-earth American gal from Riverside with a degree in Business
Administration to put the cherry on top of their future.Setting up shop & family in Morro Bay in 2004, they are the exception to the rule of too many cooks in the kitchen. The romantic team
serves up the freshest & fluffiest savoire fair at 1140 Front Street! -- Sir Edmund Dantes |
