"Started in 2012 by a former Formula 1 engineer, this croissanterie is renowned globally for near-flawless laminated pastries; its founder’s engineering-driven R&D produced croissants widely considered among the best in the world and an array of precise creations from cruffins and morning buns to savory items like an everything croissant with confit garlic, a carbonara-style Danish with bacon bechamel and egg yolk, and a pain Suisse–inspired roll filled with gochujang ground beef and kimchi." - Melanie Hansche
