I could indeed and I'm afraid I definitely don't anywhere near low carb whenever I'm there.
Freshly baked croissants are far far better than supermarket ones sold in bags of 10 or whatever number but there again the supermarket ones are usually smaller and if you bung em under the grill for half a minute immediately before consuming you'd never know. And of course you can't physically get as much jam on the smaller ones !
Fresh baguettes ditto, and of course the artisanal ones do have more holes, and more holes means more butter. What can I say?
The small chocolate cakes called 'Religieux' are supposed to be called that since when eating them, apparently you start to believe you've died and gone to Heaven. So you obviously MUST try one, mustn't you? But frankly - there are other delicacies I'd rather have. Coffee flavour ganache enrobed in good dark chocolate for instance.
We're not off until July Anthony - don't eat it all before we get there!
