The story
Located on Rue Cambon, Ritz Comir by François Perret is a high-end destination for pastry lovers in the heart of Paris. The shop offers a refined atmosphere, though the experience can be inconsistent depending on what you choose to order.
Creator Francesco Zini noted that while the shop carries a premium reputation, the pain au chocolat was ultimately disappointing and overpriced. However, the experience was redeemed by the plumcake, which Zini praised for being well-balanced. For those navigating the city’s competitive pastry scene, Ritz Comir remains a notable stop, though it is worth choosing your order carefully to ensure you get a quality taste of their offerings.

AI summary of what 4 dish mentions say about the food
Reviewers praise Ritz Comir’s plumcake as a standout, calling it the star of a warm, comforting menu that feels like home.
“This plumcake has an absolute prevalence of hazelnut flavour, a bit caramelised, and the base is very soft. There's a good balance between sweetness and savouriness. Very simple in taste, very uniform, it's a greedy, hazelnutty dessert. The texture is perfect.”

The Ritz Comir by François Perret offers iconic pastries, but the pan cioccolà didn't impress me as much as others I've had.

Plumcake
This plumcake has an absolute prevalence of hazelnut flavour, a bit caramelised, and the base is very soft. There's a good balance between sweetness and savouriness. Very simple in taste, very uniform, it's a greedy, hazelnutty dessert. The texture is perfect.
Pan Cioccolà
Technically, the puff pastry is inverted. It's like a compressed pan cioccolà stretched lengthwise. You can't say it lacks chocolate. Very concentrated in taste. Then the dark chocolate inside almost pastes your mouth. Maybe a bit too compact, but it's a pleasure. Considering it was made hours ago, it's a good product and iconic. Final bill for both: €21. That single portion was €16 and the pan cioccolà I think will fade from my memory. I've eaten much better ones. It will remain just for the shape. I put it in C.
