I'd heard about La Gourmandine for years before finally trying it.. and I'm kind of glad it too me so long to get there, because now I'll never be able to just drive past without stopping again. Wow, these pastries are GOOD. Specifically, the almond croissant was incredible, 10/10 would eat again.
Stepping into La Gourmandine was a step out of my everyday food monotony and into a momentary reprieve of tasty, masterfully crafted deliciousness.
