"The best time to come to Yann Couvreur is just after payday (and when you're craving something sweet). The fox-obsessed café makes good dainty French food like finger sandwiches, avocado toast, and a crab mille feuille—all elegant (and expensive) enough for tea time. When you’re done having several little bites, turn your head to the beautiful display of pastries. They make an excellent merveille with a hard chocolate shell of foxes running and a hazelnut and meringue filling (it’s a glorified Ferrero Rocher). You’re having lunch at the patisserie for the same reason you’re getting an expensive manicure or purchasing literally anything from the Design District—to indulge and pretend your father is a count and your last name is Hermès." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino
