Behind the scenes at the workshop-boutique of the new face of pastry in Brussels
It was only a few months ago, in April 2025, that Jonathan Salomon chose to set up his eponymous patisserie in the municipality of Uccle, in the south of Brussels. Trained in renowned establishments in the capital such as Saint-Aulaye and Hopla Geiss, the young chef quickly made a name for himself. Through his early experiences, online sales, and then the opening of his culinary showcase, he has succeeded in his goal of sharing his vision of French pastry with as many people as possible.
This rise to fame led to him being named “Revelation 2026 Brussels” last November by Tartine et Boterham, the famous guide to bakeries and pastry shops in Brussels and Wallonia. This accolade recognizes both his technical mastery and his willingness to shake up traditions while remaining faithful to excellence in his field. In his sweet gem, Jonathan Salomon combines respect for the product with creativity in a place created in his image, where each creation tells a story.
Iconic specialties in Jonathan Salomon’s creative universe
Jonathan Salomon’s culinary philosophy is based on traditional expertise combined with the elegance and indulgence of French pastry.

These sweet creations are true visual signatures that stand out for their refined textures and meticulous craftsmanship, reflecting the Brussels chef’s obvious culinary perfectionism.
Beyond the daily display, the artisan offers an evolving menu that follows the rhythm of seasonal produce and his own inspirations. The experience continues outside the workshop-boutique, as Chef Salomon also accompanies his customers through a personalized ordering service for gourmet events. Each bespoke creation benefits from the same high standards and precision as all the house specialties. So let yourself be tempted by the delicious world of this virtuoso of fine pastry, a new landmark just a stone’s throw from Brussels.
