Pâtisserie TOMO

With two locations near Opéra and Odéon, Tomo is Paris’s reference for Japanese wagashi. Both pastry shop and tea room, it is especially known for its dorayaki, prepared à la minute in traditional and French-inspired versions, alongside jewel-like seasonal wagashi that are as delicate as they are picture-perfect. The project was founded by Romain Gaïa, a Frenchman who spends half the year in Japan mastering the traditions of wagashi, and Takanori Murata, a Japanese pastry chef from a family of wagashi makers in Nagoya and former chef pâtissier at Aida. Together, they bring an uncompromising respect for craftsmanship and seasonality, introducing Paris to the refined art of Japanese pastry with Franco-Japanese sensibility.
