La Pâtisserie Cyril Lignac - Poncelet — Attraction in Paris

I am absolutely mortified and traumatized by this experience. I came in very excited to try the amazing pastries I heard so much about back home in New York, and for my first time in Paris decided to come to Cyril Lignac on my first day. Unfortunately the people who worked there were so horribly rude, I wanted to take a picture when I first walked in and I was literally shooshed out of the bakery. Like, this woman walked up to me from behind the counter and stared me down. I wasn't sure what the problem was, I felt absolutely mortified and embarrassed, so I kinda went outside to maybe take a picture of a tart in the window, but she followed me and kept staring at me until I had no choice but to leave. I'm really not sure what happened, but this is literally the worst experience I have ever had. I'm most definitely never coming back after experiencing something like this. So much trauma for wanting...

FOOD🍜 : I took 3 small bûches for Christmas : chestnut, chocolate and équinoxe. The three were very good as every year, especially for the équinoxe one.

PRICE💶: One small buche (for one person) is 7 or 8€ so it's very reasonable. They also exist in regular size (8 people) and cost 49€ which is ok for the quality.

SERVICE👩‍🍳 : The service was very poor. It only took 2 minutes, how could it be so bad ? Even though it was December 23rd, it was not too crowded and the people were still not able to give a good experience. When I went to check, I asked if it was possible to pay with restaurant card, which is possible in any boulangerie or pâtisserie that I go. The employee only said no with a condescending look, not explaining why. Then I was given the buche in a plastic bag (yes in 2023) when everyone else had a paper bag ?

ENVIRONMENT🏡:...

Nice Pastry Master shop. The palace is quite small but yet allow you to seta done and enjoy a sweet creation with a cup of espresso or cappuccino. The execution is superb in the COUIGN AMANN was amazing, buttery and crispiness of each layer are felt with each bite. We also tried a revisitation of a French Christmas desserts where marroni, peer and wishy merger into a perfect smooth creamy dessert, what I particularly enjoyed of this was the low swiftness and the freshness. Recommended for a King breakfast or for take...
