"A croissant from La Fournette is like a boxer punching above their weight. Free of any hefty fillings, the plain option is lighter than other croissants on this guide, and it managed to knock out nearly half of the contenders (including some from our favorite bakeries). It tastes more like flavorless bread crust than rich, buttery dough—but that just means it’s the perfect vehicle for sandwiches with salty fillings like ham and cheese, which you can also get at this Old Town bakery." - john ringor, veda kilaru, nick allen
