"Let’s be clear: although this Chinatown bakery makes entirely vegan croissants, we judged them with the same rigor as we did standard ones. Which makes their deliciousness all the more impressive. Less flaky and more chewy than other specimens on this list, the airy croissants at Bakers Bench remind us of Pillsbury crescent rolls in the best way possible. The lack of crispness might seem like a drawback, but it just means more of the tender, caramel-colored pastry ends up in your mouth rather than on your lap.
