Le Pain Quotidien


For those who like the French baguette and the atmosphere of a Parigian bakery, Le Pain Quotidien is probably THE place for you (even though I must reluctantly admit that the chain is originally from Belgium). Food is good, there's a lot to choose from but whatever you will be picking from the menu, either salted or sweet items, I would highly recommend that you try out the bread basket with jams and spreads (in particular the Noisella one made of praline and, believe it or not there is no chocolate in it so it can't be bad for you, right??!!).
Le Pain Quotidien is not only a great place for us, but it is also baby friendly: staff is friendly and pleased to help you, washrooms are pretty big with a changing table, they have chairs for babies and if you are in a "I want to socialize with adults" mood (I assume that happens to you too!!), ask for the communal table and its corner by the window as there will be lot of space for your stroller and it can also be a good way to discuss with other guests around that big wooden table. As you can see, this is one of the "must go there" places.
For further info, check out their website at http://www.lepainquotidien.ca/ and if I have convinced you, they have 2 locations in Toronto: 508 Eglinton Avenue West and 18 Yorkville Avenue.
Enjoy!
