The major breakthroughs that finally enabled the fill to pass muster with Will were (1) scaling back the lower-right corner (turning that corner with 6 blocks is much easier than with only 3); (2) replacing DESSERT CASES with the shorter PATISSERIE (or PATISSERIES in some incarnations); and (3) moving the thematic content to places that were easier to work with than the top and bottom.

From Beata Heuman's patisserie-inspired ceilings in homes throughout the city to Fran Hickman's tropical-night bespoke silk panels in the game room of the private members' Chess Club in Mayfair to Luke Edward Hall's playful evocations of Jean Cocteau's drawings on dishware to Martin Brudnizki's recent rococo transformation of Annabel's, the legendary Mayfair '60s-era disco-cum-supper club, their outré interiors are a celebratory rebuke to a dreary age.

Today, in the rapidly gentrifying landscape that is Harlem, the French presence is best seen in four restaurants, in addition to African-owned places with classic French dishes on their menus alongside African specialties, including Patisserie des Ambassades on Frederick Douglass Boulevard and West 119th Street; Ponty Bistro Harlem on Adam Clayton Powell Jr. Boulevard at West 139th Street; and takeout sandwich shops like B & K French Cuisine on Adam Clayton Powell at West 128th.

The company has opened its first boutique in the United States, in SoHo, on a stretch of West Broadway that we'll soon have to designate Little Frenchtown: Two doors down is Bonpoint, maker of tulle underskirts and leopard cloche hats for the children of Francophile parents; and next door is Ladurée, the patisserie where you can watch stoic chauffeurs in black Escalades pull up to the curb and deposit thin women in luxury apparel for a midweek macaron bender.

The day before, I went to his patisserie around the corner from the hotel — he has since opened a large shop on the nearby Avenue de l'Opéra — and bought a few of his specialties, many of which are finished only when you order them, as they would be in a restaurant, so that all the elements that are meant to be crackly or chewy or warm or cool have a fighting chance of being just that when you settle down to eat them.

We might pass clusters of slow-moving tourists and groups of schoolchildren, past the bars and tavernas vying for custom on a slow winter's afternoon, past Lulu's Bakery and Deli, and perhaps stopping — in honor of Dionysus, god of the vine and intoxication — for a glass of overpriced and rather routine red wine from Diogenes Patisserie (the locals call the monument the Lamp of Diogenes, alluding to the light that the first of the Cynics was reputed to carry in order to try to find an honest man in Athens).
