Number One Croissants at Patisserie Claude

If you don't know about Patisserie Claude in the West Village of Manhattan, you should. They've been expertly making croissants, brioches, meringues, tarts, and mousses since the 80s with a loyal following. Claude retired in the mid-00s but trained a protege, Pablo, who continues the mastery. Pablo is just as loved at Claude. This is one of the few places in NYC where one can get a truly amazing French pastry.
