Description

Bread in France is more than just food; it's a cultural cornerstone.

The French are besotted with baguettes, UNESCO says that eating a baguette is “a sensory experience” (someone at UNESCO really likes baguettes!). In France bread is art, bakers are artists – and every loaf is a masterpiece…Follow us: On Twitter On Instagram On Facebook On The Good Life France's website On Paris Chanson's Thanks for listening!
