Bon Pain - The Baguette test!

Here's a fact I just learned from a real live Parisian!!!!

If you want to buy a truly authentic Parisian pastry/bread/anything you see in a window that you would sell your first born for...you have to check the quality of the baguette first!

1.  Does it have a floury crust?
2.  Does it have pointy ends?

If the answer is yes to both, you are now allowed to purchase pastry from a baker who makes good quality pastry every day himself!!!

If not?  They're a fraud selling frozen - thawed  - and thrown in the oven -  non fresh crappy bread unworthy of your highly sophisticated Parisian pallete.

I feel SO COOL knowing this!!!!!!
