New pastry shop opens at Canal Station

Belle Pastry is the newest business to open in Canal Station. Just up the street from Source Salon and next door to Emerald City Smoothie, this is the second location for the bakery. Pastry chef and owner Jean-Claude Ferré opened his first shop in Old Bellevue in 2003 where he serves pastries, croissants, artisan breads, soups, sandwiches and homemade gelato. The French-born, French-schooled chef started culinary school at 14 years old and opened his first pastry shop in Normandy in 1976. (Thanks Jack, Jason & Scott for emailing us!)
