If you haven’t heard of Jacques Genin yet, don’t worry, you are not alone as he spent years and years as a reclusive chocolatier making little gems of deliciousness for the bigwigs of French cuisine. More comfortable out of the limelight in this celebrity-chef driven world, Jacques Genin probably aspires to perfection on his own terms, and this philosophy comes through in his chocolates and desserts. So, at great risk to personal health and financial well-being, I visited his new shop in Paris and tried some of his desserts. As you can read, its hard to be snarky and sarcastic when the experience was good!
