| - It was okay.
I took a quiche and a croissant (my staples to try in a bakery) and I found the quiche all right, but a bit soggy and a bit dry. Maybe it was a bit stale too, but who can blame them, it was a weekday when I went in.
The croissant was also overbaked, and a little too bready for me. It wasn't close to the ones I've had in Paris. I found the top of it a little too hard and dry, I feel like they might have brushed something like a glaze on top, and the flavour of it was veering on the side of sweet, which is very unusual in a plain croissant.
If I wanted a sugary croissant, I'd buy one. I buy plain butter croissants and I don't expect them to be sweet, which this one was...
I'll go back and give it another chance, maybe on a Friday, but as it stands, it still can't beat Le Gourmet Belge in Complexe Desjardins.
