"Set an alarm to get a stubby Tapisserie croissant—they sell out fast. If you’re one of the lucky few, grab a stool out front, and revel in the perfection of its shiny shell before taking a bite. Balance is the name of the game at this 11th arrondissement bakery (with several other locations around the city, with a croissant that walks the line between rich and sweet, lightness and crunch: a total crowd-pleaser. If you oversleep, console yourself with a brioche feuilleté stuffed with cocoa-scented praline cream or a palmier with a layer of crisp caramel coating the nut-brown puff pastry. Think of it as brown butter in viennoiserie form." - emily monaco
