  • Croissantwatch: day 5:
    Aux pains de Papy, kings cross.
    After two days of arriving to a very friendly baker saying sorry but we’re not quite ready yet (totally fair as I keep arriving 10minutes before they open). Today arrived 5 minutes early, set on missing my train if needs be.
    On the dot at 7(opening time) croissant ready fresh out the oven.
    This is definitely not the recommended time of consumption, so coffee and croissant bought, legged it to the train and settled into breakfast.

    Flaky, hedonistic smell of butter, good amount of grease to make you question whether you should be eating one of these a day, and the perfect (imho) chewy but not mush interior- which is my concern re the above too perfect looking interior.
    Anyways, 4/5 due to user error. Probably better a little later in the day.
    Coffee- much better than anticipated as well. Not burnt, good flavor.
    A great breakfast all in all.
    No cross section because it’s in my belly.

  • Reviving CroissantWatch.

    A new contender for SW London(aka the croissant corner) identified today- lockdown bakehouse Barnes. Will have to return for Aussie meat pie assessment.
    Excellent layers in crumb, light but a little sweet.
    4.44/5
    Not as good as bonjour Putney but v good
