Ive been eating croissants for years now. Not only are they delicious, they are also sophisticated. It has recently become quite obvious to me that people who do not eat croissants are as low as it gets on the ladder of evolution. Now, what I would like to see is for some of you neanderthals who dont eat croissants to keep your cool and explain to me how you can consider yourselves civilized...or even human.

I love croissants. Where can I buy decent, non-stale, real ones in Korea?

We didn't evolve from neanderthals so it would be hard to consider yourself human. Also croissants are delicious. hard to get a nice one here though.

I agree that croissants are delicious, though unfortunately, not the healthiest. Sad

I was going to read this thread because the title looks interesting, but as soon as I saw it was authored by Jinju I decided not to even waste my time opening it.

Yet you bothered to post in it.

I'll bet Qinella doesn't like croissants.

Personally, I agree with the OP. I bloody love croissants. Paris Baguette actually does decent ones. Just the plain ones for me, though. No chocolate or almonds or any other junk.

The real question is, in terms of sophistication, is what flavour of freshly ground coffee goes best together with your croissant for breakfast. Some might say the obvious choice is French Roast, but I personally prefer a nice Colombian, or better still, Lao coffee. Heaven.

To complete the treble, you must also have a Gauloise ready for when your croissant is finished.

Croissants are indeed worth bragging about.

On a side note, I once bought every single pain au chocolat (around 25) from a boulangerie in France and ate them all the same day. I think I became more self-actualized as a result.

Strangely enough, I had my first chocolate croissant in Mexico. I believe it was a turning point in my life.
