We went to meet Nicolas Paciello, pastry chef of the Cinq Sens in Paris. He created a signature dish for Lafont. We took the opportunity to ask him some questions!
Coffee and Lafont, it’s a bit the same story, we come back to the work of the man.
Like clothes, cakes are made by men.
The roaster chooses a good raw material like Lafont needs a good fabric to make a garment. The creation of this recipe is based on the fundamentals, good sourcing, favoring short circuits, opening new horizons.
I met Lafont during the French Dessert Championship where I was a juror, the feeling passed with the team, they told me about their philosophy.
One thing led to another and I took days off to go to them and since then, they have equipped me and my staff. The new range is very interesting, a little sportswear, very comfortable, very cool, I spend my days in a jacket.
It fits me well.
In addition to the original and unexpected exercise of style, that of making a parallel with their values and mine through a recipe, this type of project leads me to do things that I would not do by myself, to evolve in another universe.
The new range is very interesting, a little sportswear, very comfortable, very cool, I spend my days in a jacket. It fits me well.
A finalist in the 2018 Meilleur Ouvrier de France competition, he published "Le Carnet de recettes qui déchire" with Robert Laffont the same year. Since September 2020, he has been the pastry chef at the Hotel Barrière Le Fouquet's Paris alongside Pierre Gagnaire and opened his own boutique in Paris, CinqSens.
