La Fougasserie

Nice


Vieux Nice's finest baked goods emanate from this little corner boulangerie, which also operates a stall in the Cours Saleya food market. Quality organic ingredients go into a full spectrum of sweet and savoury delights, including croissants, pan bagnat (Niçois tuna sandwich), pizza and pissaladière (onion tart). At Carnaval time, don't miss its dreamy bugnes de Carnaval, doughnut-like fritters delicately scented with orange blossoms.
