Blue Café by Alain Ducasse: A haven for lovers of French pastries

Discover and experience world-class French pastries at Blue Café by Alain Ducasse, now open at Siam Paragon.

When it comes to the art of baking, France is famous for its bread, pastries, and high-quality ingredients, particularly its exceptional flour. French cuisine, especially its pastries, serves as a cornerstone of civilisation and culture throughout the country. In fact, French gastronomy has been recognised as a world cultural heritage, with baguettes being one of the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage sites. Now, luckily for us Bangkokians, there’s no need to travel all the way to Europe because Thailand’s pastry scene is just as impressive, especially with the recent opening of Blue Café by Alain Ducasse.
