About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. A few years ago, a regular noticed something peculiar in the bread basket behind the counter at Tous les Jours. Every morning, among the freshly baked loaves, there would appear an old, crusty baguette with no visible markings or price tag. No one claimed ownership, yet it always seemed to vanish by lunchtime. Finally, someone asked the baker about it. With a twinkle in his eye, the baker replied, ‘That’s my secret baguette—free for anyone who can guess why I keep it.’ To this day, whenever anyone tries to claim it, they’re met with a knowing smile and a whispered, “Because it brings us luck.”
2. A few months ago, a delivery driver pulled up to Tous les Jours and asked the baker, ‘Do you ever wonder why people always leave those little notes inside their pastries?’ The baker shrugged and replied, 'Probably because they’re leaving messages for each other.' The delivery driver grinned, took out his phone, and wrote something on his pastry before handing it back. Later that day, a neighbor picked up her usual croissant and found a note reading, ‘Meet me behind the bakery at 3 pm.’ She smiled, thinking it was from her secret admirer, until she saw another note in her husband’s baguette: ‘I’ll be waiting!’
3. A few weeks ago, a delivery driver pulled up to Tous les Jours with an unusual package. As he unloaded crates of pastries, he noticed a small envelope taped to one crate. Curious, he opened it—and found instructions for a secret menu item only available on Thursdays. The delivery driver grinned and decided to try his luck. That Thursday, when no one was looking, he ordered ‘Les Petits Secrets’—and received a freshly baked croissant filled with unexpected riches: a tiny note reading, ‘Happy Thursday! Enjoy your surprise.’ From then on, whenever someone asked what was so special about Tous les Jours, he’d just smile and say, ‘It’s the little things.’
4. A few days ago, a delivery driver pulled up to Tous les Jours with an unusual package. As he unloaded crates of pastries, he noticed a small envelope taped to one crate’s side. Curious, he opened it—inside lay a note reading: ‘Take what you want, but leave the moonlight.’ The delivery driver shrugged and thought, 'What the heck.' He picked out a croissant, wrapped in a napkin, and tucked it under his arm. Just as he was leaving, he glanced back at the crate—and saw that the moon had indeed been replaced by a giant chocolate éclair. Everyone who heard the story shook their heads and smiled, knowing it would be talked about for years to come.
