"I wasn’t sure what I was expecting when I traveled 90 minutes for an onigiri-shaped croissant, but it sure wasn’t Cafe W: a two-story bakery hunkered like a dentist’s office in a parking lot in Murray Hill, Queens. Inside, owner John Lee is running a Wonka factory of bread, with squid ink rolls, baked cheese hot dogs, black sesame croissants, and red bean butter pastries; you pick out what you want with a tray and tongs and pay at the register, and most pastries cost between $5 and $6." - Eater Staff
