(From November 2010) Francophiles in search of the best croissant this side of the Atlantic need look no further than this tiny bakery in West Austin. Versailles-born pastry chef Chi-Minh has not only tinkered with the perfect flour-and-butter ratio for a flawless, flaky French delicacy but also delivers on bistro classics, including quiche lorraine, buttery omelets, savory buckwheat crepes filled with anything from ham to cheese to spinach, and simple delights such as chocolate mousse and crisp-on-the-outside, spongy-on-the-inside baguettes. C’est magnifique!
