...a Senegalese-born Parisian! I love it.
The 2010 "Grand Prix de la Baguette de Tradition Française de la Ville de Paris" has been won by Djibril Bodian, 33, who beat 160 other professional contestants at the tasting. Sure, it's ruffled a few traditionalist feathers, but he's French, too, so well done! Now he gets to supply Sarkozy for the year.
