Café de Pacai: Vilnius’ New Beacon for Bean-to-Bar Pâtisserie

Behind the counter is one of Lithuania’s leading pastry chefs, Evaldas, who finally has a dedicated stage for his craft. Here he works like a chocolatier and a chef-pâtissier in one, creating French-inspired desserts with a distinctly modern edge. The display is a study in precision: glossy entremets, refined tartlets, airy pastries, and rows of immaculate chocolate bonbons, each piece finished with the kind of detail more often seen in haute cuisine restaurants.
