"GO HERE: for excellent croissants, pain au chocolat, quiche, and most importantly, Patisserie Au Kouign-Amann’s namesake pastry. Buttery, sugary, flaky, and tender doesn’t even begin to describe this magical Breton invention. ORDER: everything above, plus the large-format kouign-amann. Sure, you’ve probably seen the pastry in small individual-size wheels, but we can’t get enough of these super-size ones that are baked and sliced into wedges. It may just be the best $2 CAD you’ll ever spend. THE VIBE IS: tiny and unassuming, until you walk into the storefront. It smells like heaven. Before you grab one of the few tables, admire all the shiny golden-brown kouign-amann in the pastry case. PRACTICAL STUFF: Open every day: Monday to Friday 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. —Molly Baz" - Condé Nast
