Cream Pan - Review - Lomita - Los Angeles - The Infatuation
"Named after a sweet custard-filled pastry, Cream Pan is the kind of French/Japanese bakery that understands the power of whipped dairy. The long glass cases inside their massive Lomita bakeshop are lined with things like melon buns, custard cups, and shortcakes covered in homemade icing. No trip here is complete with one of their flaky strawberry croissants, with sweet cream and strawberry slices oozing from the laminated dough. Cream Pan also carries house-baked milk bread wrapped and ready to go, plus there’s a solid cafe menu with everything from onigiri to curry buns to egg sandwiches. We’re partial to the pork katsu plate—it takes about 15 mins to fry up an order, but the tender, golden-brown cutlet is worth every second." - Nikko Duren
