If you ask Parisian expats where they buy baguettes, it's from this local chain of French bakeries that Portland is lucky to call its own. Founder and career boulanger extraordinaire Dominique Geulin helped open Le Panier French bakery in Old Town in the '80s before returning to France and garnering international acclaim.
