Paul, Eden Walk, Kingston-upon-Thames ©2009 wwpFrench café restaurant, Boulangerie, PatisseriePaul official website: www.paul-uk.com Location Map: here About Paul - French café restaurantThe history of PAUL is the story of one family’s love of good food and passionate commitment to the best traditional baking methods over more than 100 years. In 1889, a small local bakery opened in Croix near Lille in Northern France. Four generations later the PAUL name is known throughout France and, increasingly, around the world. Charlemagne Mayot and his wife were the proprietors of that first small shop in Croix. The business passed down the female line of the family until Charlemagne’s granddaughter, Suzanne, married Julien Holder. They took over another local bakery in Lille called PAUL. Because the name was well-known and respected, they decided to keep it. When Julien died in 1958, his son Francis took over the business. Francis had trained in all aspects of patisserie and baking, and bread-making was always his first love. When he took control of PAUL, he maintained the traditional, labour-intensive methods of bread-making that had been handed down through the family since the 19th Century, deliberately bucking the trend of factory mass-production, and ALWAYS insisting on the best quality ingredients. He believes the French make the best bread in the world, and PAUL’s success, both nationally and internationally, suggests that his customers agree. Francis is still Chairman of PAUL today and his vision and drive have ensured that his sons, David and Maxime, have joined him in managing a very substantial and much-loved business. |
