"Follow the trail of buttery croissant flakes to Fournée, a tiny bakery in Berkeley that makes incredible French pastries. The line that spills outside is inevitable, so patiently wait your turn with the AM dog-walkers and cyclists. They’re all here for pain au chocolat that aren’t overly heavy, sugar-kissed morning buns, and golden brown scones. Leaving with a boxful of sweet things is the main objective, but the ham and egg croissant—a hypnotic swirl of pastry layers, curly-edged ham, and a fudgy whole egg baked inside—should be your savory option." - Julia Chen
