It wasn’t so long ago that serious coffee drinkers would lament a trip to Paris, knowing they would spend the duration of their stay having to endure the bitter, watery coffee for which the city was infamous. Fortunately, relief has come in the past few years, in the form a cohort of foreign coffee savants. Included in the bunch is Australian Tom Clark who, in collaboration with Frenchman Antoine Netien, founded the cafe and roastery, Coutume. Discreetly situated within a leisurely stroll of Le Bon Marché in the seventh arrondissement, Coutume has become the saving grace for coffee-deprived travellers who call Paris home.
