craving: croissants.

this morning i woke up craving croissants. again. i ate a croissant every morning on our honeymoon (even while we were in prague!) i don't remember eating a lot of croissants when i studied in paris during college, so i am not sure what the recent obsession is but dannnng they are tasty! buttery, flakey - hard on the outside and soft and doughy in the middle. drool.

Vanille Pâtisserie in the French Market has great croissants too. And macarons, of course!

croissant with a hot caramel mocha for the morning is my favorite

I ate a croissant every morning when I lived in Madrid. There's something about them thats just so good and addicting.

I second Alex's recommendation of Floriole. They do wonderful croissants! Also, try La Fournette. It just opened by North and Wells and is run by one of my old chef instructors. He's a forth generation baker who closed up shop in France to come teach in Chicago.

It's hard to find them outside of France! I'm still looking for that delicious crusty baguette made here in the US since I left Paris.
