Seven sent : 7 new Parisian addresses to feast

Niwa : bread by Yamaguchi

After Botanique (a creative bistro that closed) and Wani (a coffee shop that really cooks), chef Sugio Yamaguchi is tackling a monument of French gastronomy: bakery. In a magnificent 1911 shop with marble and bronze counters that has already melted many French and international influencers, he works with old wheat, selected flours and sourdough. Alongside croissants and pains au chocolat, this "maison de pétrissage" offers a sports bread with dried fruits, an organic egg sandwich or a smash cheese, a grilled cheese prepared in a crushed croissant.

Niwa, 56 rue Vaneau, Paris, France

Salted Boy : the ba-K-ery with a capital K

After several pop-ups, Anthony Nguyen and his associates opened in September 2026 their first counter entirely dedicated to salted bread. Born in Japan before becoming an obsession in South Korea, this very buttery roll has a crispy crust and soft crumb. At Salted Boy, it can be enjoyed plain or dipped in pandan and coconut cream, chocolate sauce or even cream cheese.

Salted Boy, 4 rue Réaumur, Paris, France

Miett : The restaurant-style jambon-beurre

In Belleville, Marius Bernini and Alfred Drevon, former cook of the restaurant Ventrus, decided to take the French sandwich seriously. The bread comes from the bakery Mamiche, but the rest is prepared on site, up to the white ham, cooked in an herb broth. He joins a half-baguette with malted yeast nut butter, homemade cucumber pickles and, for the full version, 18-month-old well-aged comté. The two partners also roast their chicken and fry their potato pucks. A sandwich shop that borrows its methods more from restaurants than from snacks.

Miett, 68 rue de Belleville, Paris, France

Munch : Bagel's not dead

Opened in the summer of 2025 in a former bakery in the Batignolles district, Munch makes bagels sexy because  of its artisanal-style, far from those cooked by multinationals. Made with sourdough, the bread welcomes fillings inspired by New York delis, but adapted to French products such as smoked trout. The address also operates as a coffee shop open all day and is part of the global wave of bagel returns (in premium version).

Kumquat Café : the nonconformist coffee-shop 

Chef Yin-Line Chea, who has worked at the well-respected Parisian bakery Sain, doesn’t just serve cappuccinos and matchas. Her coffee shop offers drinks inspired by her Asian origins and crafted like real recipes: sesame-peanut latte, hojicha-hazelnut-white chocolate, homemade masala chai or golden yuzu... On the plate, the same freedom with sourdough slices of bread topped with roasted vegetables, squash cream or red lentil hummus. Who said that we drink and eat the same things in coffee shops?

175 °C : vegetables also can be roasted on a spit.

Son of butchers, Baptiste Huet could have opened a traditional rotisserie dedicated to Sunday chicken. Rue de Charonne, he chose to broaden the subject with a second rotisserie (almost) entirely reserved for vegetables. Cauliflowers, carrots and other seasonal products rotate next to farm poultry and pork. The cook also takes care of the seasonings, especially with pork marinated in gochujang (Korean fermented chili paste) or smoked mayonnaise with hay.

Shwi : Grilled chicken, Lebanese style

After Kubri, their Lebanese restaurant on rue Amelot, the partners opened in spring 2026 a second establishment dedicated to farrouj meshwi, the popular grilled chicken in Lebanon. At Shwi, it can be ordered whole, half or quarter, but also fits into a sandwich or a bowl. Hummus, Lebanese bread and lemonade complete a short menu, designed for both counter and takeaway.
