Poilâne: The Best Apple Pastry in Paris

2012-11-09

I wasn’t in the mood to throw out 21 euro for a loaf of their famous sourdough loaf, but I went for their deceivingly simple Apple tart. I hesitate to call it an Apple tart because 1) it wasn’t tarty and 2) it should be called a Soft, Doughy Croissant-Textured Apple Tastebud-gasm.
