Since I see everytime Masterpastisserie de France I wanted to try at least one of the shops of the judges. I have to say that 3 of 4 eclairs were really good and one (the strawberry's one) was okay. They could be a little more crunchy but it's worth to try at least one in lifetime!

These are works of art. While expensive, we love to "experience" food and I felt that we did just that while here. It's a quick easy place to grab some sweet treats while on the go!

For what you're getting, I don't think it's worth it. It's just an eclair. The page a choux is great, but come on you're in Paris so all pate a choux must be good. It's clear this is great quality, but yet again, I feel the little eclairs are way overpriced. We tried the lemon yuzu and the strawberry eclairs.
