Move over, donuts - there's a new tasting tour in town.
From October 1 through 7, fans of one of France's most beloved pastries can take themselves on the first-ever 麻豆传媒映画Croissant Crawl.
The DIY tour features limited edition croissant flavours and creations at nine participating vendors around the city.
"When I moved to 麻豆传媒映画earlier this year, I was in search of new friends, and the best local croissant," explains Crawl creator Laura Wong-Thompson in an email. "The idea for a croissant crawl was born. The 麻豆传媒映画Croissant Crawl is my love letter to the city, and a croissant celebration for foodies to enjoy together."
The crawl was designed to be self-guided, so you can "choose your own adventure" by creating an itinerary for walking, biking, driving or however you prefer to get about.
Here is the full list of participating vendors and their feature "crawl" flavours:
- Bel Cafe (both locations): Churro Croissant (cinnamon and dulce de leche)
- Cadeaux Bakery: Mash n' Stuffin Croissant (Filled with garlic mash, rosemary bechamel, stuffing frangipane, topped with more stuffing frangipane)
