At the heart of Melbourne's posh Toorak Village is this light, bright, clean homage to authentic French and European pastries. Founded by chef Laurent Boillon, who trained at the world-famous Le Notre in Paris, the front window of Boulangerie draws in custom with smooth cheesecakes, pies, tarts, tortes, breads, confectionary and personalised special-occasion cakes.
Inside, the counter display runs almost the entire length of the store with an intimate arrangement of chairs and tables occupying the remaining white-tiled space. The layout is more suited to counter service than a sit-down dining affair, but it is often bustling at breakfast and on weekends with people dining on coffee, croissants and petit fours. French women have a reputation for staying remarkably trim, despite such rich indulgences - let's hope that the gift for slenderness has crossed continents as successfully as Boillon's recipes, so we can treat ourselves regularly.
