Croissant my love, how I adore you.
Croissants are my favorite breakfast staple. I've had them everywhere but none as great as the ones at Essence. I live for these, I dream about them, and since I discovered Essence I have to have them on a weekly basis. From what I've heard, the chef (God bless her) has this special fatty butter shipped from France to make these criossants. I don't know if that's true or some story my mind has concocted to find reasons to buy more. Either way, I'm hooked. The perfectly crisp crust on the outside an the airy inside make it the superb balace of yin and yang that all other croissanteers have failed to grasp.
