"The sign over the door still says Moishe’s, and Moishe Pearl still owns the East Village building, but there’s a new baker at 115 Second Avenue — and for the first time in probably 100 years, he’s French. Jean-Francois Hebert is from Normandy, so in addition to the baguettes, croissants and brioche, there are specialties from the North of France like tartes au sucre — soft rounds coated in sugar and dotted with a few trinkets, such as almonds or bits of chocolate. Fruit tarts, including lemon meringue and tarte Normande — slices of tart apple baked into a custard — fill a small refrigerated case. Delivery via UberEats." - Daniela Galarza, Eater Staff
