French-Asian Bakery Chain Opens Its 5th Twin Cities Café
On the heels of its grand opening in Maplewood, South Korean bakery chain TOUS les JOURS has debuted another new café in the Twin Cities' east metro.
The French-Asian bakery's newest location in Oakdale become the chain's fifth location in the Twin Cities, joining the existing east metro location near the Maplewood Mall and other outposts in Richfield, Maple Grove and Plymouth.
TOUS les JOURS' Parisian-style menu focuses on baked-fresh breads, pastries and cakes, with the South Korean influence found in ingredients such as red beans and sweet potato.
The Instagram-worthy cafés also serve coffee, matcha, ube lattes, smoothies and more.
TOUS les JOURS arrived in the United States in 2004 and today operates more than 110 locations nationwide, and more than 1,740 globally, according to its website.
Paris Baguette, the largest South Korean bakery chain of its kind and a TOUR les JOURS competitor, opened its first Minnesota location in Maple Grove last year.
