Da’an District, Taipei City｜LA BOUTIQUE de Joël Robuchon Taipei侯布雄法式精品甜點

LA BOUTIQUE de Joël Robuchon Taipei侯布雄法式精品甜點⠀ French bakery and dessert shop⠀ ⠀ If you’re still unable to get a reservation at the 2 Michelin Star French restaurant L'Atelier de Joël Robuchon, please consider to come over to have a taste at its bakery and dessert shop, hahaha. As per the statement of Sogo Taipei - LA BOUTIQUE de Joel Robuchon French boutique desserts design the entire space with classic red and black contrasting colors, presenting a fashionable French style. In addition to the signature macarons, there are also a variety of classic French desserts, sandwiches and baked cookies. The original French dessert spirit brings you an unparalleled taste of happiness. Located right at Level B3 (right next to the escalator) of Far Eastern Sogo Taipei Fuxing store, this authentic French bakery (yes, even approved by French friends in Taiwan, stating that this shop offers real authentic flavor) offers lots of bread, desserts, sandwiches and many more to their customers.⠀ ⠀ I didn’t notice that there’s another shop of JR at the same floors that offers dine-in services. When I first arrived to B3, immediately go into this bakery shop and buy several stuffs. The price is definitely on the higher side, compared to most of the french bakeries, but honestly, I highly think that it’s totally worth the price. The taste is very authentic to those that I’ve tried personally in France when I was there several years ago. Besides that, the packaging itself is really nice and it’s a perfect even for own consumption (for the pleasure of the eyes) or even as a gift to others.⠀ ⠀ 📝Ordered 「尼斯沙拉三明治 Le Pain Ciabatta」 - Supposed to be chewy texture for the bread, the bread outer layer become a little soggy due to the time I got back home. However, still taste delicious to my personal opinion, and mainly due to the generous filings of tuna, green beans, fresh tomatoes, boiled eggs, lettuce, black olives. Can’t imagine if I’m eating right after I buy it, would be really awesome.⠀ ⠀ 📝Ordered 「紅寶石 Rubia」 - Definitely one of the best desserts that I’ve ever had. Awesomely designed, the outer layer of red cherry wrapped the inner fillings of chocolate milk raspberry mousse. You can definitely feel the passion of the small cute desserts on every cut and bite of it. With the sweet, but not overly sweet, and sour, this rubia dessert tends more towards fruity flavors with the aroma of passion fruits and banana.⠀ ⠀ 📝Ordered 「可頌 Croissant」 - Insane amount of almond chips on the croissants will definitely blow your mind. First off would be the texture of the croissants - crunchy outer layer with soft inner layers - that shows the perfection of croissants. Secondly would be the generous amount of sliced almond chips on top of the croissants. And the most amazing would be the whole butter (small cubes) that you can see on the inner side. Every bite of the croissants or every pull of the bread, you can see the butter flowing through, together with the almond chips.⠀

A bit expensive but their food is so good, especially steak is just perfect!

Great place for pastries and cookies, especially if you're looking for a high-end gift. The packaging is very luxurious, and the desserts themselves are delicious.
