We have selected the best Japanese pastries in Paris. Tomo Tomo is a bit like the headquarters of Japanese way of life in Paris. Behind the door hides a tea salon, minimalistic, aesthetic, classy, zen.Founded by Tomoko Kato, this pastry shop offers a selection of authentic and refined cakes. You will discover organic pastries made entirely on site, using local and seasonal ingredients. Here, we respect the values of wagashi, which focuses on aesthetic presentation and flavor harmony. A favorite is their specialty, the Dorayaki, Japanese pancakes filled with red beans, but also their frozen mochis.
