La Banette

Spanish translation: La Banette

French term or phrase: La Banette
It is the name of a sandwich shop - sounds french but no such word seems to exist
Delia
Spanish translation:La Banette
Explanation:
La Banette is a trade mark of bakers which specialize in baguettes, the long and thin type of bread. By extension, "banette" has come to design that special type of baguette, which is different from common baguettes (has a special form, etc...). That's the explanation for the word. However, in Spanish "baguette" is commonly used (I use it everyday when I go to the baker's!). Nevertheless, I would opt for leaving it as it is in French and adding in parenthesis "a special type of Baguette". It is the same as with "Donnuts", which has come to designate the object, whether they are actually made by Donnuts or they are made by another baker's.
I hope this will help you.

Keep La Banette


Explanation:
If the spelling is correct, I suspect that it is a play on words i.e. a cross between 'La Baguette' and something else that ends in '...nette', but I can't figure out what! In any case, as it is a proper name, do you really need to translate it? I suggest the following treatment:

... La Banette, a sandwich shop, ....

(Sorry, but I can't do that in Spanish - I leave that to you.)

La Banette


Explanation:
En la referencia que te mando podrás ver que Banette, en el fondo no es una franquicia sino otra cosa, un... modo de concebir la fabricación de pan. Un distintivo de garantía de sabor artesanal, etc.

Te lo transcribo:


Qu'est-ce queBanette ?

"Banette" désigne l'association du savoir-faire de meuniers et d'artisans boulangers indépendants qui s'engagent à défendre la qualité du vrai bon pain.

Pour tous les amateurs de pain, c'est un repère de confiance, la certitude d'une qualité garantie et d'un goût authentique.

Contrairement à certaines idées reçues, "Banette" n'est pas une chaîne de boulangeries.

Visto, pues, que en el fondo no es una cadena de panaderías, en esa misma referencia puedes encontrar los distintos panes tipo "Banette".

La Banette : "T65" Une farine pas comme les autres ...


Les Viennoiseries Banette:

Banette Brioche
Banette Croissant
Banette Pain de Mie


Les Additifs technologiques Banette:

Banette récolte direct
Banette récolte froid


Les Autres Farines Banette:

Banette 1900 Tradition
Banette Gruau


Les Pains spéciaux Banette:

Banette Fibre
Banette Pain de Campagne
Banette Pain au Son
Banette Moisson
Banette Pain Briare
Banette Pain Complet
Banette Pain 6 Céréales
Banette Pain Bis
Banette Pain de Seigle
Banette Seigle Royal
Banette Pain Sportif

Es decir, "Banette" es un modo de enfocar la artesanía del pan (pan banette, harina banette,etc.)

En la misma referencia encuentras

Des professionnels s'engagent

L'idée de créer Banette a germé au début des années 80 pour répondre à une exigence croissante des consommateurs concernant la qualité du pain, satisfaire un désir de plus en plus exprimé de retrouver le goût authentique du pain artisanal.

Une quarantaine de meuniers ont alors décidé d'associer leur savoir-faire à celui d'artisans boulangers s'engageant à respecter une méthode de fabrication traditionnelle garantissant les qualités gustatives du vrai pain d'autrefois.

Espero que te valga
