Overview

This teahouse, mirroring the French patisseries of yesteryear, was built in 1946 by Jean Louis Pinaud and his wife Suzanne Garda. It has since become something of a tradition in San Isidro. Today there are also two other locations to tempt your sweet tooth—in the Larco Mar shopping centre and in the Farmacia Dezza. The owners are especially famous for such French delights as madeleines, sacristains, croissants, brioches, profiteroles and their assortment of sandwiches, desserts, cakes, cookies and homemade ice cream. Nothing could be better than an espresso or cappuccino to sip alongside.
