Hugo Chaise, whose lively, cheerful grocery store is well known, has just set up shop just a stone's throw from the Saint-Jacques Tower, on the quiet Rue Saint-Bon. After a small laboratory at the back of Apollonia Poîlane's bakery, the chef has now taken flight and opened his own café in the heart of the Marais district.

In this beautiful space, with its elegant soul and raw, refined aesthetic, fermented products are enhanced and can be used in all preparations, from drinks to desserts!

Hugo knows his stuff, and it shows in his dishes. On the menu, a savory kimchi brioche roll served with redcurrant jelly, or a magnificent palace omelet topped with miso butter, which gives the place a neo-bistro feel.

For dessert, a mochi brownie, just the way we like them, soft and regressive, served with amazake instead of custard. You absolutely have to go, if only to enjoy, in just a few minutes, the signature lupin miso latte. A gentle saltiness coats the palate and your lips play with the hint of miso, placed neat on the rim of the cup. It's delicious, clever, punchy, and above all, it's very naughty.

Miso, amazake, kimchi, kombucha: if these words sound sweet to you, come running, My Fermentation Coffee is the perfect place for you. And if you're curious about new flavors, come running too, you'll be delighted. Hugo Chaise has found his space for creativity and expression here, and unsurprisingly, we love it!
