Grill Courtepaille sur Balma

02/09/2024: After several passes in front of this attractive storefront, I decided today to enter this place. Best decision of the day. Faced with this array of delicacies, I wanted to offer my palate a journey to the 7th heaven. By choosing the dish of the day “the chef’s lasagna” which was as attractive as it was generous, managed to quell my overflowing appetite. Their big eclair overflowing with cream aroused in me an overwhelming desire to stuff my mouth full of it. Arriving at the checkout, this is where the 3rd desire, and not the least, comes into play. The seller, tattooed and bearded, giving you dark and seductive glances, offered me their famous signature “petricollet” baguette (failing to offer me his own..🥺) Seeing it, I understood that it was the element I was missing in order to end the day in style. Needless to say, I didn’t leave a single crumb…. This pétricollet has everything of a perfect baguette, crispy but soft at the same time, beautiful and crunchy, hard but not to break your teeth, it's the baguette of your dreams. This bakery is quite simply the house of desire, of PLEASURE.
