Poilâne - un repas simple

Poilâne

All that is needed for a simple meal...

Ah, I can almost smell the aroma 

of bread baking in the wood-fired ovens,

in my mind at least.

Rue du Cherche-Midi

Between the windows on the premier étage (first floor above the street)

 is this charming piece of architectural detail.  

The plaque says simply "au cherche-midi"

19, rue du Cherche-Midi is a few steps away 

from Poilane the reknown bakery.  

The street traces the route of an old Roman road 

and is situated in one of Paris' most sought-after residential neighborhoods 

with its 18th and 19th century homes.
