We had fruit pastilles, some spiced chocolates and hot chocolate. They all were superb. However, it was only with difficulty that we could finish the very rich and absolutely delicious hot chocolate, which came in large cups: I recommend that either two persons share a cup or you forgo having anything else. After our overdose of chocolate, we were desperate... More

As one of the other reviewers noted, this is like a jewelry store - - and a high fashion one for sure. The chocolates (and more) are displayed like jewels; the hot chocolate is perhaps the best to be had. The store front is very unassuming, and is a short walk from Les Enfants Rouge market; if you do not... More

I love having someone put on white gloves to select and box my chocolate selections! Visiting this renowned chocolaterie in Paris is a fabulous experience and just reinforces how seriously the french take their food. We bought several boxes of divine chocolates - all with fantastic flavours. The teahouse is also very elegant and the patissiere delicious. Definitely a great... More

I visited here a recent trip to Paris with my husband. We both ordered the hot chocolate which was easily the best I've ever ordered. It was extremely rich and came with 4 chocolates to try. The atmosphere is also top notch. We ordered a pastry to split, too. The pastry was good, but a bit too much food for... More

read on a couple of different websites that Genin has stopped making his famous pastry treats he is just sticking with chocolate which I suppose is still very good

We had a taste of chocolates, coffee, warm chocolate milk ( very heavy but tasty melted chocolate without lots of milk !) and a great tarte citron with fresh basilic herbs which was the greatest discovery of our visit...

Firstly, as you should expect, the food here is all superb. We tried the chocolate and a tarte- and the millefeuille certainly looked fantastic although we didn't try it. Portions are adequate, if not a little meagre in size for their price tag (price/value equation- if portions were bigger they could better justify their price, actually the size was perfect... More

We had the praline mille-feuille that was the best in Paris (even better than that from a 3-star michelin restaurant - guy savoy). The chocolate though looks normal tastes divine. The hot chocolate however was just good (Angelina does better hot chocolate) but definitely come for its pastry. P.S. as you might have noticed from other reviews JG only do... More

If I were to choose one last food before my death, it might just be these mago caramels. It would be a shame to miss these caramels on any trip to Paris.
