Where to find foodie Brits in Paris
John Brunton
Willi's Wine Ba
Mark Williamson, doyenne of British restaurateurs in Paris, has been going strong for 26 years. His wine bar/restaurant is as popular as ever.
Le Timbre
rue Sainte-Beuve,
They are open six days a week for lunch, and brunch at weekends. As Jean-Charles explains, 'At nine-thirty we start cooking until midday, when we open. We don't have any storage fridges, so everything has to be eaten that day. We normally sell everything, which often means that we sell out by 2.30.'
They've got a big fan base in Paris, despite the initial scepticism - not only do they always sell out but they also recently catered for the Comme des Garçons shows at Paris Fashion Week. Rose's brother is married to Rei Kawabuko, who presides over the company.
The book came about by chance. Jean-Charles explains: 'One day, this man came in for breakfast. He said, "I work for Phaidon Press and we'd like to do a book with you." Two days later I was in London in his office. We talked for a couple of hours, and then he said, "OK, let's do the book." As I was leaving, I said, "I hope you don't mind me asking, but what is your position in the company?" "I own it," he said.'
Their next project might be another Rose Bakery in Paris, or even Tokyo. Rose has found a bit of land in Normandy where she wants to plant fruit trees and build an eco-house. For now, though, it's a chance for them to enjoy a rare afternoon off. And another slice of cake.
