| - Patisserie Au Kouign-Amann is a small little bakery that offers croissants, quiches, and sandwiches. I tried their ham & cheese croissant, a Danoise Aux Framboises, as well as a traditional slice of the kouign amann. The ham & cheese croissant was pretty delicious, as they split the croissant and place it on parchment paper and heat it up on a panini press - the then put the halves back together and it was a buttery melty goodness - I was surprised that it wasn't at all salty, and the ham slices wasn't too overwhelming. The Danoise Aux Framboises was just okay, as I got this more based on the look - it was a small cute little tart that was filled with some raspberries, but it wasn't what I expected it to be; I was thinking it would be more along the line of a danish with some cream and raspberries, but it was a bit doughy and lacked any flavor to it. The kouign amann was interesting, as rather than a contemporary rendition, it is of a traditional pie slice format that is found in the Bretagne area of France. This had a light sugary glaze on the outside, but it wasn't as crisp and flaky as I imagined it being. Staff were super friendly, and there are only two tables within - most patrons were getting theirs to-to.
