"For those looking to be transported to Paris with elaborate entremets and beautiful laminated pastries, look no further than Artisserie Fine Bakery on Northwest 23rd Avenue. A gleaming display case shows off an array of macarons, croissants, beignets, and mini entremet mousse cakes; pros head straight for the chocolate Rocher croissant, a croissant filled with crunchy chocolate-pecan filling similar to the candy truffles, or the caramelized canelés, spiked with vanilla and liquor. Keep an eye out for seasonal treats like pumpkin pie croissants." - Michelle Lopez, Janey Wong
