Croisserie near me8/24/2023 ![]() ![]() The Chocolate Lava is an innocently petite looking Danish pastry with a chocolate centre. I am relieved to see a “proper barista” and “proper machine” chug out a pretty decent Flat White and Latte. Before I embark on the sweet journey, a coffee is in order. I am quite full, but it is universally known that the dessert stomach works independently. Up Close with a CroissantĪt this point I am excited to try the sweets. Be prepared to get messy with these treasures. The brittle shell fragments with gentle prodding revealing a fluffy melty interior. Kudos to their flaky buttery versions that crumble on the plate as you tear them apart. Marketing 101 states that every successful business should have a USP (Unique Selling Point), and the team at Croisserie have achieved this with their Croissants. ![]() I can easily see myself returning and grabbing a number of these to take home. Formed in a round mold it would make a quick lunch with a bit of salad on the side, or an impressive starter for a more formal dinner. It’s packed generously with salmon and spinach, and encased in a thin crust buttery pastry. Under the savoury family, the Salmon Quiche is a standout. The Rye, Fig, Cranberry and Flaxseed Loaf is scrumptious, and we learn that the baker alternates ingredients daily so visiting on consecutive days will gift you with something new to try. Also made with that same yeast starter are Croisserie’s fruit breads. The captivating aroma is not only a result of this sample being not long out of the oven, but also because the artisan bakers here ferment their own yeast rather than using the pre-packed variety. The crust is rustic and crunchy, while the insides are soft and mildly spongy. Croissant and CoffeeĪs simple as a baguette is, a great baguette is pure joy, and the team at Croisserie have mastered this classic. With this visit to Croisserie however, it might appear that my search is over. I grew up eating French, Vietnamese and Australian breads every day – they were my staple, and as such I’m on a seemingly never-ending lookout for good bakeries. Croisserie, Artisan Bakery, Plaza DamansaraĪlthough I consider myself quite localized food-wise, in my eight years in Kuala Lumpur I’ve always felt there was a bit of a gap in the market for great quality western and European style bread and pastries. It’s filled with delights guaranteed to make you feel warm and fuzzy, and as we soon discover, one visit is just not enough. Although appearing to be relatively small, this little gem churns out a big variety of both sweets and savouries that would make any French baker proud. Croisserie Artisan Bakery, once a quaint neighborhood bakehouse, has taken on a refreshed lease of life with new management, a revamp of the menu, and an attractive renovation.
