B. Patisserie

If you leave b. Patisserie without at least three kouign-amann, we’re going to start wondering things. That’s because this popular French bakery in Lower Pacific Heights is churning out the best in the city, all thanks to buttery dough that tastes like a caramelized croissant. So better stock up. Folks line up down the street for them, plus many of the other viennoiseries and baked things you can get here, including a fantastic chocolate caramel mousse bomb and some top-notch financiers. Whatever you decide to get, whether it’s the tarts, tartines, cakes, or cookies, will be near peak form, so feel confident rolling with whatever speaks to you from behind the glass case.
