"The East Bay has more than its fair share of excellent places to get a croissant (looking at you, Fournée and Pâtisserie Rotha). But a croissant with a flan filling? That, you can only find at Forma, a busy French-Mexican bakery in Temescal. Their classic French items, like the puffed-up plain croissant and crusty baguettes, are great—but don’t leave without some bags of the Mexican pastries, like apricot jam rosquillas and squishy vanilla conchas dressed up with a delicate crumbly topping and sugary skirt. Pair your treats with café de olla or a cappuccino and eat them at one of the outdoor tables. photo credit: Forma Bakery photo credit: Forma Bakery" - Julia Chen
