For my birthday each year I like to get myself a fancy treat. Cat & Rabbitt had popped up in my…read moresocial media here and there and they always looked good so I decided to see what they had going on for February. There was a chocolate cherry chunk cake that sounded amazing and even looked like a b-day cake! I got there super early on a weekday and was able to park right across the street. Service was friendly and prompt. They had several non-cake items including some scallion & cheese biscuits, which I had to get! Cake - $12. Denser than I thought it would be, but in a good way. I really enjoyed it and the slice was ultimately a good amount of cake for me that I ate over a couple of days. Scallion & cheese biscuits - $6/each. They were very good, but $6 is a bit steep compared to other bakeries. Definitely worth it try one if it calls out to you, though.

Would come back and try everything on the menu again.

Not even kidding, we buy anywhere between 6-12. They take us about a week to eat but oh man, we look forward to our evening sweetbuns during that time. They keep very well in the fridge; just pop one... or two in the micro for a minute-ish. They're the perfect amount of sweet. Ya know how everyones favorite part of a sweetbun is the middle? I mean, it's for good reason, its delicious. I actually cannot pick what part of her sweetbuns are my fave. The entire thing is special in its own way. The fluffy outside with a kiss of all the gooey cinnamon mixture covered in the cream cheese icing. Then moving around to the middle where both sides are covered and its a little softer. The texture when you finally make it to the middle, just go ahead and plop it all in your mouth. Goodness, whens the next sweetbun day?

It's sour and tangy so if you don't like cream cheese, avoid at all costs. We did not know until we bit into it and it was sour and it was very displeasing to my taste buds when I was expecting sweet cream. I got a chestnut white mocha, and the taste was subtle, but it was also lukewarm. The black sesame croissant was yummy and flaky. All the pastries lived up to its Instagramable hype, but the flavors did not live up to the hype. Pretty disappointed with the taste, but everything looked pretty.

Located just a 5 minute walk away from the Pioneer Square light rail station, this small French…read morecafe serves some seriously good pastries. They use high quality ingredients (Isigny Ste Mere butter, Valrhona chocolate, etc). It's something that really comes through in the final product. Cinnamon Cruffin ($6.50) - I'm not sure I would call this a cruffin since there's not really any laminated layers on the interior. It's more like monkey bread, with a richer brioche interior interspersed with ribbons of cinnamon, then dusted with cinnamon sugar on the outside. There are some crispy caramelized sugar bits on top which I found to be fun to bite into. (4/5) Casse-Noisette ($6.50) - The lamination on this croissant looks quite nice, but the interior isn't particularly buttery and the layers are quite delicate. It's filled with a hazelnut-dark chocolate spread which is sticky, messy and rich. I believe it's a homemade spread rather than nutella due to the richer taste and darker color. The exterior of the croissant is soft instead of crusty and shattering, probably since we didn't eat this until the end of the day. They sprinkle crunchy pearl sugar and crushed hazelnut on top, adding some additional pleasing texture. (5/5) Savory Tartelette ($6.50) - This tart is filled with tangy and funky goat cheese, sweet and soft caramelized onion, a drizzle of honey, and a small zing of rosemary, on a super buttery and crisp base. The croissant base tastes by far the most buttery as compared to both the Almond and Hazelnut croissants. (5/5) Almond Croissant ($6.50) - I believe this is a double baked croissant given the dark brown bake. As with the casse-noisette, this croissant has been softened by the Seattle spring humidity and unfortunately no longer remains particularly crisp. The croissant is cut in half and filled with a sweet almond frangipane. I believe it's made in house - it's more sugary than almond, and the texture is quite a bit less viscous than most almond croissants. The frangipane compresses the croissant layers into thicker slabs, and this creates a chewy texture that almost reminds me of egg in texture. (4/5) Kouign-Amann ($6.50) - Finally another proper Kouign-Amann! This one has enriched more brioche-like laminated dough rather than plain croissant dough like a lot of other bakeries use. This makes the pastry so much richer and decadent. The interior here has a certain flavor that's totally different from the dough in the casse-noisette and in the tart. I feel like there's a unique funk that might be from cultured butter. The pastry is still quite flaky, with layers that easily come apart, and there's still a bit of a crunch from the sugar glazed over the surface. I especially love the center, where towards in the interior, there's an almost sweet custard-like center, and the center top, where there's a sand-like mound of almost-melted sugar. (5/5) Marbre ZigZag ($5.99) - Really moist and dense marble cake, deceptively heavy for the size. There's a thick layer of dark chocolate ganache covering the cake layer, making the slice exceptionally rich. (5/5) La Baguette MBO ($3.95) - This is an oddly shaped baguette, curved instead of flat, and very uneven in width. The shape was strange enough I thought the baguette would not be good. Cutting it open with a bread knife, the interior crumb seems a little tight, missing some of the more open holes of a well risen baguette. The taste and crustiness, however, are excellent. The flavor is very well developed and there's a hard baked crust that gives a fantastic baguette crisp. It's not perfect, but for $4, which is less than baguettes cost at most places in Seattle, this is a great deal. (5/5) Mirabelle by Orphée is another excellent Seattle bakery! I will definitely be visiting again. Bathrooms - Single unisex room shared with the other building tenants. Requires code to enter

We stopped by Panterelli after the West Seattle Sunday Farmers Market, wandering in after hearing…read moreabout the best Choux pastries in Seattle. There weren't any other customers inside and we were greeted with an empty display case in the front. While barren, the owner, a gruff* French gentlemen, confirmed that he still had choux pastry left with a choice of either vanilla, coconut, pistachio, or hazelnut. We decided to go with the pistachio, which he assembled fresh for us, first by piping pistachio cream inside the choux shell, then dipping in melted chocolate and sprinkling pistachio on top. Pistachio Choux ($6) - The choux is excellent, baked until deliciously crisp on the exterior while the inside remains soft, eggy, and tender. Since it's fresh filled and we ate it right afterwards, the cream never migrated to saturate the crust - I suspect people with issues with mushiness probably let the cream puff sit too long before consuming. The cream, which is piped to the brim, pushes out against the delicate shell, causing each bite to almost squirt out a bit of the luscious, silky whipped custard. The cream coats the lips and mouth with a layer of fat. It's not too sweet and has a light nutty pistachio flavor. The melted chocolate the top is dipped into glues on all of the pistachio dip. The chocolate is slightly bitter, yet sweet, so it helps cut through some of the rich silkiness of the cream. The pistachios on top act like a crumble, perhaps pulverized and melded with butter to create a very rich yet pistachio forward mix. It's strongly flavored, and the chocolate creates such a strong cement that none of the nuts detach while eating. (5/5) Panterelli was a huge surprise as it wasn't even on our radar until we walked past the shop randomly while exploring the Farmers Market. It's a definite revisit in the future! *The owner isn't nearly as welcoming as a typical American small business owner, but is certainly friendly and eager to chat. I also love his attitude - looks aren't that important; it's the taste the reigns supreme!
