A soupçon of Paris has arrived in the OC with Bouchée, a new patisserie located on the front drive of Montage Laguna Beach. The café shows off executive pastry chef Lee Smith’s baking prowess, with buttery croissants, artistic tartes, and delicate mille-feuilles—all prepared by hand daily—as well as house-spun gelato, fresh sandwiches, and specialty coffee and teas. Pair an espresso with pain au chocolat and savor the sweet art de vivre—no passport required.
