Flaky Pastry

While flipping through an issue of Travel & Leisure magazine, I came across a feature written by David Lebovitz, detailing his search for the best croissant in Paris.

The croissant image completely nails the essence of this flaky pastry and the way he describes his search makes you feel like you are on the morning stroll with him as he jumps from one spot to the next until he devours his dream croissant and issues the verdict: Patisserie Boulangerie Ble Sucre. He explains that what set it apart from all the others was "a masterful hint of French sea salt in the dough." As a croissant lover, that sounds pretty perfect to me. I appreciate the address side bar where he lists the addresses of each place he visited along with the cost of croissant at the given location. David Lebovitz is a former pastry chef and has his own blog about living the sweet life in Paris.
