| - SETTING:
Cute little french pastry shop with a clean and cozy interior. A handful of tables (about four) that seat two people each. Not a very big place, so probably best to get things to go or come during off hours if you want to eat here. I heard lines can get pretty long which would crowd the bakery quickly.
PASTRIES:
I think they only make a certain amount each day, so once they're sold out (which happens) then you're out of luck. To me, this speaks to the quality and freshness.
Got me the Almond Croissant that was recommended by a friend. Excuse me while I wipe the white powder that is sugary goodness off my lips.
Personally, I don't like things that are super sweet (ie: I dilute my fruit juices with water to cut down on the sugar...don't judge me!). This pastry was just about right on the sweet-o-meter. A tad bit on the sweet side though, so I cut it in half to save for later. I don't think I would be able to finish the whole thing in one sitting without feeling guilty or bouncing off the walls from the sugar high. My friends who got the almond croissant all raved about it, and I agree. No doubt, it was delicious. Parts of the base/bottom tasted a bit doughy though, but it wasn't a big deal...maybe that's how its supposed to be? I'd definitely get the croissant again and try the other pastries.
SERVICE:
Very polite, warm, and patient people working in the shop. Gave some good recommendations about their offerings. Classy establishment with classy people.
IMPRESSIONS:
I'd love to come back and try the other pastries! Reasonably priced and delicately made. If you ever want to "treat yoself," stop by and check it out. I already feel a withdrawl coming on...uh oh. It would be dangerous if they delivered.
