Lune Croissanterie

I really enjoyed my first lune experience. I don’t eat croissants often and when I crave one I really want one. I went on a Sunday morning and knew to wake up early to get there just before they opened. It didn’t happen but got there just after 8am when they opened and there was a queue already which went out the warehouse and around the corner. It was a sunny morning and with great company. I already had my morning coffee so I didn’t mind the wait. Everyone came out with boxes of croissants and yes I was worried a little that I’d miss out! It did take 30mins before my turn and most items were still available — I had only wanted to try a plain one and the popular almond croissant. We ordered a few more plain ones to share with others for morning tea. The croissants were packed in a box fast and the ordering process was easy and we were greeted with friendly staff.
I tried the almond croissant first. Although a bit pricey– it was huge and heavy and generous on almond flakes and filling. I took a bite and it was delicious. Crispy, fresh, sweet and just yum. A little heavy for the morning and I personally wouldn’t be able to eat a whole almond croissant — so I shared it. We had the plain croissant for lunch and it was flakey and so delicious. The lemon curd cruffin was nice but I prefer the traditional croissants better. I understand that queuing up for croissants may not be everyone’s thing but it certainly made my morning. It was a great rare treat.
Exercising that afternoon made it all worthwhile.
