Review of Maison Bertaux

ooh la la! 
magnificent cakes, like walking into a scene from an art house movie - all pink chiffon and french chintz everywhere..... r the who place is overseen by a wonderfully barking english lady who dresses and acts like an eccentric french widow.
I bought a big plum and almond tart for a dinner party - it had just been baked and was all rather lovely - if not a bit pricey at £25 - but it would have fed 12 easily.
the service was great - complete with the elaborately tied pink ribbon around the cake box
apparently the place has been there since the 1920's and judging by the clients I reckon it might feature highly in Japanese cook books.
