Traveling is just in some people’s blood. Even when we can’t travel, however, we can still feel as though we’ve been transported to other corners of the world. We just have to visit the many restaurants and bakeries around town that take us to faraway lands. Let your taste buds transport you to the heart of France – Paris, perhaps? – at this charming French bakery in Pittsburgh.
Indulge in authentic French pastries - and other goodies - at La Gourmandine Bakery in Lawrenceville, a family-owned and run bakery that opened in 2010.
Led by French-born Pittsburghers Fabien and Lisanne Moreau, the bakery's popularity grew so quickly that the couple eventually expanded to Downtown Pittsburgh, Hazelwood, and Mount Lebanon.
A trip to an authentic French bakery has to include a fresh baguette, too, doesn't it? What's your favorite way to eat a baguette? Warm with melting butter? Or plain, pieces pulled straight from the bag?
Treat yourself to a taste of France at La Gourmandine, open in Lawrenceville Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday from 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
