The bubble was the size of a room because the atelier ceilings were 5m high on one side and the entire atlelier was 70 M2. There were holes in the walls and broken windows.

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.
