What to expect

Patricia was an awesome host. Super knowledgeable about the history of the Pletzl and enthusiastic about sharing it and her jewish food knowledge. Highly recommended.

We were four, a mum and my three daughters. We really enjoyed the tour. Patricia was very knowledgeable, and was willing to say more and answer further questions. The pastries were delicious and i loved the history behind each pastry that Patricia informed us. I highly recommend this tour.

Patricia was nice, knowledgeable, and with great taste in pastries! Me and my husband couldn't get enough of any of the delicacies she recommended to us (especially the strawberry cake). I would highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in experiencing a more classic side of Paris (hopefully by next time, wine tastings will also be enabled)

It was wonderful, however my husband and I are picky eaters and we should have said this to Patricia. But we would really recommend her. She was so sweet!
