| - My little brother's wife was determined to take me to this French bakery, and I must admit it was my speed. I ordered a mini lemon, raspberry tart and a "create your own" sandwich. I chose the croissant for bread, the turkey for meat, and mozzarella for cheese. Although the sandwich was not filling and there was not an opportunity to order anything with it other than French pastries, I could not complain. Everything was fresh, and I spent $9.00 including my bottle water.
The atmosphere was quirky and no two things seem to match which emphasized the quirkiness. The lady who served the pastries was well-educated about the pastries, friendly, and full of "I love my job" kind of energy. By the time I arrived with my party of three at 11:08 pm, the line had snaked to the back of the establishment. Even though the line was rather intimidating, it moved fairly quickly, and that was impressive to me.
When my turkey and mozzarella croissant was ready, a server was calmly walking around looking for me. Once again, impressed.
Final thoughts: I will go back the next time I am visiting in Charlotte, NC.
