Le panier de Viennoiseries came with a croissant, pain au chocolat and
pain au raisin - $10
It is a steal but unfortunately it is not very good. The pain au raisin was a bit burned and the croissant and the pain au chocolat was just ok.

I asked for over easy and like the egg yolk to be runny and it what I got was definitely overcooked.

The store by itself is really nice, cozy, and
welcoming but the service was left to be desired.
Our waitress did not really care and she disappeared for a longest time. Basically, she served us the food and then left.
Needless to say this is the first time and it is probably the last time here.
