What to Order
Almond Croissant
A consistently praised pastry, known for its perfect balance of flaky layers and rich almond filling, maintaining crispiness despite the paste.
"Most almond croissants seem to lose their flaky layers once the almond paste is put in or on top, but theirs maintained its crispiness and flaky layers somehow! It was also still very buttery and rich like you'd expect from a croissant. So good!!!"
