Our Mission
Here at Potpourri Boulangerie, our mission is to provide an environment of mirth and comfort, while also promoting a sense of exploration and curiosity.
​
Our tearoom is designed to convey an air of quaint elegance. We try and bring couples, family, and friends closer, by fostering a table that encourages congeniality via the sharing of plates, towers, and teapots.
​
We believe that when you pour tea for the person to the right of you or snag a sweet or savory morsel from our seasonal tower for the person to the left of you, a meal ascends to a communal event.
Origins
When I started Potpourri, I wanted to give the people of Oak Cliff a place where they could relax, enjoy a good meal, and be treated like royalty. Everyone deserves a little break.
-Criseida Barreiro, Founder
The Chef
-Andres Barreiro-
Being raised in the family business of Potpourri of Silk. Chef, Andres Barreiro has always found the culinary world fascinating. Every angle has had a unique attraction to him, from building design, restaurant concepts, front-of-the-house setup, to kitchen mise-en-place.
After graduating from Texas Culinary Academy in Austin, TX, Chef Andres spent a year working in Destin, FL at Cuvee Bistro, feeding a hunger to learn more French cuisine techniques.
Later, he spent time in Montreal, Quebec, where the local boulangeries, cuisine, and the mixed European and Canadian ambiance sparked a desire for him and his family to rebrand Potpourri of Silk into the Potpourri Boulangerie you see today.
