"Brooklyn’s popular French bakery L’Appartement 4F is opening a location in Manhattan. Owners Gautier and Ashley Coiffard announced on Monday that they had signed a lease in the West Village at 119 West 10th Street, between Greenwich and Sixth avenues. “Brooklyn Heights will always be our baby but excited to bring our croissants to Manhattan,” they wrote on Instagram. The Coiffards opened the first location of L’Appartement 4F in 2022. The bakery became an online sensation for selling boxes of mini croissant cereal for $50. Its croissants and other baked goods continue to draw a crowd." - Luke Fortney
