| - I love everything about this cute little spot! The ambience, the service, and most importantly the baked goods! It was my first time in and the staff was very patient with me as I looked over my options, and happily answered all my questions and offered suggestions. The chef even came out to talk about his lovely creations! As a chef myself, I can totally relate to the way his face lit up when describing the pastries...that passion is rare and yet it is the most important quality in a good chef! It really shines through, you can tell when something is made with love vs just to collect a paycheck. I loved everything I tried! I was reccomended the almond raspberry croissant, and it did not dissapoint! It was the perfect balance of sweet and tart, with a perfectly crispy flaky exterior and a lovely moist interior. Not dry at all! I also tried their regular almond croissant which was also lovely! These are the best stuffed croissants I have EVER had. I also tried a madeline, which was delicious! Who knew cake could be so tasty on its own without any frosting?! And last but not least, I tried the special easter nest cake, a lovely light cake surrounded with lovely whipped cream and topped with fruit, a maccaron, and malt eggs. It was so delicious! Not too sweet, just perfect! I love that after eating half of each item I am surprisingly not feeling heavy or bleh, like I usualy do after indulging in a lot of sweets. This leads me to believe they use real ingredients from scratch and minimally processed! I can't wait to go back and try their coffee and hot food, and alllll the pastries!
