croissant au beurre, an original illustration from Paris

CROISSANT AU BEURRE n°201910

Postcard from Paris –

A buttery croissant from Paris, steaming hot, is like nothing else. Not all Croissants au Beurre are equal. Some of them are fluffy and melt in your mouth. These are from the boulangère on the corner of Rue Mouffetard and Rue d’Arbalète. They are fluffy.
