Kouign Amann - 2 J's comment > not bad; perfect coloring; very crisp overall (a touch too crisp personally); w a soft center, but not much of it; FYI, this is one of the best sellers and I barely managed to grab one before it was sold out @ 10am; ranking-wise, I'd put Beta5's 1st, Batard's 2nd and Dominique Ansel's 3rd |

St. Honore - 2 J's comment > very light and fluffy choux; cream filling was OK, but needed a lot more to balance out the amt of choux; the slightly caramelized choux were not too hard which I was fearing, from my dreadful experience @ Maison Keyser (FYI, MK's St. Honore has seriously dealt me w a healthy dose of anxiety everytime I come across a St. Honore now - will have to remedy that when I get to Paris ;D) |

Chocolate & raspberry biscotti - 2 J's comment > strong chocolate notes; not so much the raspberry; biscotti crisp; kinda like a hard brownie |
