    Delicious cream puffs! The service was fast and nice. The cream puffs were delicious and pretty. They even have a class for decorating choux. They also have a location in the East Village. Cute shop inside, and they pack the choux nicely. They have macarons and cake too.

    This place is not super small but not a lot of seating. During the summer they have a few seats outside. Everything is tiny with large prices. Love their bite size puffs but they are really expensive compared to other puffs for their size

    Perfect bite size and kids friendly. Had a few seatings indoor but it's not far from the museum or Central Park. Must try flavor of the month, we had chestnut on Dec 31st and can't wait to get back in Jan for the new flavor.

    Passion Fruit Meringue Tart
    Lauren L.

    I got the passionfruit meringue tart and three cream puffs- flavors: tiramisu, whipped cream, and dulce de leche. Passionfruit meringue tart: I was most amazed by this one. The crust was delightfully crunchy in a texturally very satisfying way that was a nice contrast with the creamy passionfruit filling and fluffy meringue. The passionfruit filling is flavor forward and was the right amount of sweetness and tartness. I know it's a meringue tart but I wish there was more of the passionfruit filling and less meringue tbh. If you like passionfruit, this is a must-try for sure. Even if you don't have a particular liking for passionfruit, I think you'd still find this so delicious. Dulce de leche cream puff: Out of the three flavors, this was for sure the best one. The pastry has a nice soft crunch and the puff was properly filled. The cream filling was light and fluffy, and the dulce de leche on top was very flavorful and added a delicious sweetness to each bite. Whipped cream cream puff: my favorite part of this one was the little pastry hat on top that was satisfying to just munch off. Other than that, it's good but in a mid way, just cuz it's literally just whipped cream inside the puff. Tiramisu cream puff: Ugh I was so excited for this one cuz I loveee tiramisu and everything tiramisu flavored but damn what a disappointment. The pastry had a dense, soggy, chewy texture as opposed to the cream puffs that had a nice bite to em. The inside was not properly filled at all, it was like one fat dot. Maybe I just got an unlucky unfortunate cream puff. The flavor itself was spot on tiramisu taste with an espresso filling and sweet mascarpone cream on top. You do wanna get all the components in one bite tho cuz the filling is surprisingly bitter but works when it's with the sweet top.

    I would legitimately give them 100 stars if I could! The BEST little French cream puffs and tartes in the city! These are honestly my favorite treat. My personal favorites aside from the cream puffs are the passion fruit and seasonal apple tartes, but everything is delicious. You can taste the freshness in the ingredients and see how much love goes into making their desserts beautiful. We always order the larger size tartes for special occasions. I also really appreciate that it's a small business, female owned, and the staff is always lovely. It's a special shop and we are so lucky to have them in the neighborhood.

    I stopped in on a whim and picked up 3 little cream puffs for $10. The crème brûlée was my favorite by far. The cream was smooth and sweet, and the caramelized sugar added a nice element of texture to it. The lemon meringue was delicious, but I wish it was more lemony and tangy. The mango was their special flavor, and I found the cream to be gritty. It tasted vaguely fruity, but I wouldn't say it was mango flavored. There is minimal seating on the inside and a small patio for outside seating. It's a great spot for a mid-day sweet treat given how small and light the cream puffs are.

    YUM!!!!! Don't know if I haven't had legit cream puffs or if I have just not tried GOOD cream puffs in my life but these little pastries were amazing! Love that there's an option to a get a box to try multiple. Also the server was super friendly and offered recommendations to try. There's some inside and outside seating, not super big but on a Monday morning I had no problem finding a seat to enjoy these bites of heaven. 1. Classic: super light and sweet 2. Hazelnut: this is coated in chocolate and has a cream filling. If you sit outside, eat this fast so it doesn't melt 3. Raspberry (my personal fave): any time a non-chocolate dessert is better than a chocolate dessert for me , I know it's good. This was the perfect summer treat. Super fruity and sweet. Was very tempted to go back for a box for just these

    So cute and delicious! Got a couple cream puffs and macaroons for an afternoon tea set and it really added taste and visuals.

    Box of Three

    A cute little shop in UWS specializing in French pastries, specifically pate a choux. We grabbed a box of three petite choux cream to try. All their flavors were very enticing but we ended up with Pistachio, Creme Bruleé, and Tiramisu. I enjoyed all of them. The fillings were all very creamy and flavorful. The choux itself was also nice with a crunchy craquelin top. My favorite was the Pistachio though. Would love to try all their flavors at some point. They have very few small bar seatings so I wouldn't bank on dining in.

    This review is for TGTG bags. Creampuff box included 5 creampuffs: 3 tiramisu, lemon and cherry. This was prepackaged. Pastry bag included baguette, chocolate chip and a passion fruit tart. I brought the tart and cream puffs to dinner and they were well appreciated. The staff was so friendly and gave me my choice of tart. We now have a place to grab last minute desserts on the UWS I'm looking forward to the baguette tomorrow after I go to the farmers market.

    Such a lovely treat! The cream puffs, while small, are more than enough and are absolutely stuffed with cream. My favorites were the lemon and caramel (on the ends). They're pretty pricey for their size but worth the hype in my opinion. They are just the right level of sweet and serve as a great gift as well. This location is pretty small and is just grab and go with small bar seating.

    Pear Tart - delicious , love it Passion Fruit Tart - delicious , love it Hazelnut Puff - delicious , love it Key Lime Puff - least favorite as it's kinda basic. It's kinda like tart and puff to it's best texture and crunchyniess!

Went to the Flatiron store both times and didn't have to wait long to order. The staff were great and packed all of the little cakes nicely so that they survived the trek back to our condo. Mango--all around favorite, wound up buying like 4 of these cause half my friends preferred it and I liked it a surprising amount Blueberry--very mild, no tartness, not too sweet with good blueberry flavor Orange--fresh and orangey in the middle, loved this one Pear--reminds me of cinnamon apples (I guess this was cinnamon pears), which isn't my favorite flavor but others enjoyed Banana--made me sad cause I LOVE banana flavored stuff and this just... wasn't? It had old tasting banana paste in the middle assuming because it's real banana and not artificial, is tiny, and didn't taste good Yuzu--nice yuzu flavor and disappeared fast Cloud--forgot the actual name and apparently didn't take a picture, it had chocolate/hazelnut mousse with some sort of caramel and something crunchy, also delicious All of the petit gateaus were on the mild side which is a big plus for me. Appearance was top notch and the balance of cream to filling on point. I'd like to try some of the other pastries next time for sure.

    This is my third time going and I have to say I finally got the right desert the third time…read more Shared pics from all 3. Hands down the best thing to try is the mango (so flavorful and some parts feel cold like ice cream) and I also really liked the pistachio. Cloud is safe, Not too sweet and it's soft mousse. Yuzu (the flower dessert) had a hard rice cake under it which I was not a fan on. Everytime I have gone, the lien move pretty fast. Seating is whatever table you can find. So have one person place the order while the other scouts for a seat.

Something with eggs, and meat, and a hot beverage as winter is fast approaching. Anything else would do fine, but the first two were an absolute must. Daily Provisions fulfilled those obligations. Though pricey, and probably why I will not return, they make one tasty breakfast sandwich. It might even outdo Panera! If only I could see how it is made rather than just wrapped and packaged for me, with me assuming they just took a pre-packaged sandwich and heated it up. I really hope they do not do that. The taste of it tells me they do not, but I have to surmise. I also got a hot chocolate, which is super rich. It is not super hot, but if you are not careful you could have an accident on the sidewalk because of the milk they use. Drink it slow and steady. Or pace yourself between sips. Do not let the body recognize this is full of the things that make bowel movements happen. Thankfully, I held my ground. They also sell crullers. I love a good cruller. Choux pastry donuts full of rich flavor, without all the density of an actual donut. This one may be too rich. It is also quite expensive. Nearby Donut Pub does a better job with them. I had to be careful eating this. Being careful and knowing how much it cost to get a breakfast here are what keep it a three star review. However, their offerings will keep you out of the cold and give you strengths on days you need to be picked up.
