Unique Selling Points
Overview
Le Pain Quotidien (French for "the daily bread") is a bakery-restaurant group founded in Brussels, Belgium in 1990 by Alain Coumont. As a young chef dissatisfied with the quality of bread available in Brussels, Coumont started making his own organic sourdough bread with just 4 ingredients: flour, water, salt, and time. Le Pain Quotidien now has more than 217 bakeries in 26 countries. Our mission is to create meaningful connections in a home away from home; serving simple, delicious, authentic organic and local cuisine, made in-house.
