Pain de Echo is a place I have been going to since way back, and it keeps growing and moving into nicer premises. I had not made it to the new location yet, so I set aside some time and went.
The place
Seriously classy. Moving because business is going well is a good thing.
The jams
They sell all sorts.
The breads
You can really feel the difference in level. There are only a handful of bakeries in Korea that make bread this well.
The breads
Waiting their turn, maybe?
The breads
Deciding what to buy takes a lot of thought.
The breads
They all look delicious..
Slicing it
They slice it by hand instead of with a machine..
The cookies
The loaves
They do this kind of bread too.
The drawing
Cute..
Inside
Looks great.
Chocolate baguette
The chocolate baguette has not only chocolate but cinnamon and dried fruit in it, so if you like a dessert feel along the lines of fondant au chocolat, this is a baguette you really should try. This chocolate baguette was so good that I started hunting down the chocolate baguettes at all sorts of bakeries. But there are not many places that do it this well.
Naomi
They said they made it for their beloved wife.. and the rich, nutty flavor came through nicely.
Rye bread
It was the mellow, nutty style, with no sourness at all.
The quality is so good that it truly lives up to its reputation.. I liked it a lot..
