"A small bakery with a fast-moving queue whose pastry case invites comparison — “like perusing the display case at Cartier” — thanks to flawless apricot macarons, berry-heavy almond praline cream puffs, and octagonal dark chocolate banana cakes with caramel glaze. The sheer variety is staggering; highlights include a canelé that’s “hailed far and wide” and an extra-buttery laminated kouign amann described as so perfect it “deserves international awards.”" - Meg van Huygen
