Tartines!

By Kate in Food

I ate my first tartine a few years ago when I was in France.  My brother discovered them at this great little boulangerie, Poilâne when we were in Paris, and I haven’t forgot them since then.  An aside-for those of you who have never heard of Poilâne, it is a popular french boulangerie that people [...]
