Have you ever been to Dalloyau?This picture is from Dalloyau's party catalog.
A quite traditional Parisien insititution?(Pronounced Dall-why-o or however you like it...)
The Dalloyau family has been making gateaux, ice creams and bread for over 200 years for French royalty. I went to Luxembourg branch at 2, place Edmond-Rostand 75006There are 7 Dalloyau boutiques around Paris
I got The Works! 
*Have you noticed how the French like to drink their OJ through a straw... 
Exquisite jams too. You go upstairs for petit dejeuner at Dalloyau.
There's something about a messy table...
Do take a look at Dalloyau's splendid dessert catalog. Some Dalloyau factoids: They have 97 cooks, 100 pastry cooks, chocolate makers and confectioners, 4 ice-cream makers and 4 bakers. In a year they make 55 tons of macarons, break 1,300,000 eggs, bake 1,500,000 Viennoiseries, and create 50 tons of chocolate candies !
You often ask me about Paris restaurants...
Since I mostly exist on breakfast, pastry and salads in Paris...
I thought you might like to check out the restaurant recommendations of David Lebovitz, who not only lives in Paris full time. He actually eats dinner. 
I have eaten lunch at one of David's favs, Christian Constant's Les Cocottes, 135, rue Saint-Dominique, 7th and if was formidable.BONJOUR LUNDI PB readers!

But never late for breakfast.
I went all out the first morning at the club, soup to nuts minus the beans...
It's fairly common for locals to eat every day like this...
I tried to cut back, yet the rashers of bacon called my name...
The hardest cut of all - just a plate of cutup fruit + yogurt + OJ.
The hot croissants + 'lade' or marmelade are out of this world...
If we could only cut out the croissants :(
Full English breakfast - 6.95 pds. a sign in a caf...
If I keep up the daily croissants + bacon, I'll look like this Wagnarian Valkyrie mug at Harvey Nichols...
Why ever did I think breakfast mugs were a newish invention?
The V & A has just opened up their enormous ceramic collection for study..
Ceramics from every part of the world, floor to ceiling ceramics.
How would you choose which teapot in the morning?
A gazillion white teapots alone...
Blue and white Wedgewood of every variety...
Back at the club, Tom the cat simply wants a plain bowl of breakfast food.He's not fussy.
BONJOUR ENGLISH BREAKFASTS!
