Editorial Review for Michelle Coulon's Dessertiere – by Erin Chambers

In Short
In the rear of a small blue and white complex on Fay in downtown La Jolla lies a sunny French patisserie with just a few café tables in front of a large dessert case. Racks and baking accoutrements are exposed in this working bakery, where Ms. Coulon prepares gourmet sweets like berry muffins, flakey croissants, iced sticky buns and assorted cakes fresh each morning. Thick, rich hot chocolate or café-au-lait are the perfect pairing.

Insider Tips

On the Menu

You can get lunch or a light supper here too (menu changes daily), but it's really about the sweets.

The Extras

Son Nathan was the chef here for years, and now his own just-opened Banker's Hill spot Modus is getting lots of buzz.
