the viral, filled nyc croissants

lafayette grand café & bakery: 7/10. I have been wanting to try this bakery 🥯 for so long ever since its croissants 🥐 went viral on all social media. I was dying to try the chocolate filled croissant especially

pain au chocolat supreme [$9.50]: 7/10. let’s acknowledge the fact that it’s $9.50 for a croissant 🥐 which is ridiculous. however, I was willing to try at least once. the croissant 🥐 isn’t as flaky and as soft and as buttery as other ones you may try at other bakeries. it needs to be denser to hold in the heavy filling. that being said, there wasn’t too much chocolate 🍫 filling in mine, unfortunately. they are very not good after one day!

pistachio supreme [$9.50]: 8/10 this was the surprising star ⭐️ of the show. the pistachio cream wasn’t too sweet and was very light 💡 which was a much needed change from the dense and sweet chocolate 🍫. the croissant itself had the same issue but i’m still glad I tried overall
