Le Pain Quotidien (''The Daily Bread'' is a bakery-restaurant group founded in Brussels in 1990 by Alain Coumont. It is an international chain of bakery-restaurants. It carries an array of baked goods and coffee drinks as well as a dine-in food menu. ==History== Founder Alain Coumont opened Le Pain Quotidien on 26 October 1990 at 16 rue Dansaert in Brussels, Belgium. As a young chef, Alain was dissatisfied with the quality of bread available in Brussels, so he began making his own, mixing flour, water and salt into the familiar loaves of his childhood. He furnished the store with cabinets scoured from antique stores and a large table purchased at a local flea market: the first of Le Pain Quotidien’s many communal tables.〔Coumont, Alain and Jean-Pierre Gabriel (2009). ''Alain Coumont’s Communal Table: Memories and Recipes.'' Brussels, Belgium: Editions Françoise Blouard. P 90-96.〕 Gradually, items were added to the menu to complement the bread, including pastries, salads, beverages, tartines (traditional, open-faced sandwiches) and specialty retail products.〔Coumont, Alain and Jean-Pierre Gabriel (2009). ''Alain Coumont’s Communal Table: Memories and Recipes.'' Brussels, Belgium: Editions Françoise Blouard. P 112-113.〕 Within a few months 10 Le Pain Quotidien bakeries were open in Brussels. The first Le Pain Quotidien in the United States opened on Madison Avenue in New York City in 1997. Expansion continued in the US with Los Angeles, and in 2004 the company's headquarters were established in New York.〔http://www.lepainquotidien.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/GLOBAL_PRESS_KIT_1013_3.pdf〕 The headquarters are currently located at 50 Broad Street in New York City's Financial District.〔http://www.lepainquotidien.com/contacts/#.VeXErPlVhBc〕 Vincent Herbert has been the Chief Executive Officer of PQ Licensing S.A. since 2003, managing the company-owned United States, United Kingdom, Belgium, Paris and Australia operations and overseeing the international franchises.〔
