| - Café Breizh is home to America's best authentic French croissant. And thanks to Pierre and Jérôme, the genial young Brittany natives who own this wonderful bakery and make every delicacy themselves by hand, Café Breizh offers the finest pastries in Las Vegas, as well. French butter is used for their superb creations, and even the crepes--a Breton specialty--are made with a proper French griddle.
It is clear that Pierre and Jérôme have professional integrity. Dedicated to traditional methods of fabrication, they use time-honored artisanal techniques and understand that the finest ingredients yield noble results. Pastries at Café Breizh are at once light, delicate and deeply satisfying, the best I have eaten in the States. But their croissant is most impressive of all. So often this ubiquitous crescent roll translates into a lump of vaguely stratified dough...: at Café Breizh genuine French croissant is an absolute poem; dozens of light, flaky layers with a rich buttery smell in perfectly browned crackly shells, works of extraordinary skill that only a true French master baker could generate.
My husband and I learned of this new "patisserie" from our friend Jacques, a charming French fellow who knows how to live well. Jacques explained that Pierre and Jérôme had been employed at the luxurious Wynn Resort, before deciding to take control of their own destiny. Finally, to valorize the architecturally beautiful pastries neatly arranged under a glass-top counter, Café Breizh is tastefully decorated in fresh, clean whites, which act as a frame for the elegant display. I am very much looking forward to coffee and croissant there in the morning--most highly recommended in every sense!
