I’ve posted quite a bit about Dominique Ansel Bakery, but here’s another one…
Chouettes, which were airy puffs with sugar crystals on the outside. Light and tasty but I won’t order these again – not to my fancy.
Fresh chocolate chip cookies that tantalized us with the scent, so we had to grab one and my oh my, these were fantastic. Soooo good, warm, and slightly cakey in the center with a chewy edge… mmm.
It appears that stopping by Dominique Ansel pre-road trip is becoming a tradition… yes, this was the day before I headed to DC (posts to come). I also picked up a few croissants for the trip, which I know were appreciated by DLS (though I didn’t get to eat much of either, boo).

I went again twice in the past 10 days, but I won’t be posting on those. More croissants – which, if you buy too many and don’t eat them all before they go stale, are great cubed, then soaked in an egg+Sriracha mixture and fried in a pan with meat (bacon, sausage, whatever) and whatever veggies you have on hand – a cookie, madeleines, and yum… Friday afternoons are becoming my time for a DA visit 🙂

You make us want to head over to the West Village every time we read (and see) about your treats from Dominique Ansel. Everything looks delicious!

What? Those aren’t Yvo’s giant hands?
T.C. says
You saying I have giant girl hands?
Nah, not with my callouses.
Feisty Foodie says
Ha! No, I’m holding the camera. You think I’d let someone else touch my camera?
T.C. says
Yvo is a mutant. Extra pair o’ hands.

I tried your choc chip cookie one of those days. I don’t think it was fresh from the oven but it was really good. This place is really growing on me. I like that it’s a French bakery. I want more cannele!
Feisty Foodie says
Now you see why I’m there every Friday 🙂
T.C. says
The cookie was really good when it was warm.
I wish they had baguette sandwiches but understand DA is a boulangerie. Otherwise, I’m more of a Italian bakery fiend. ;P
T.C. says
*DA isn’t a boulangerie…
T.C. says
*an ordinary boulangerie…
My bad. LOL.
Feisty Foodie says
Hahaha! They have sandwiches… just no baguette as far as I know. I think this is more a patisserie than a boulangerie. I just went to La Boulangerie in Forest Hills – we should go sometime.

for realz 🙂 no other place except Levain has that many bakings of cookies throughout the day… Torres keeps his on a hot plate bit that’s different. Nice pics too:)

Have you visited the new Schmackary on 45th and 9th? I think they bake more cookies throughout the day – at least it seems that way – though they just opened last week, and they sell cookies and just about only cookies.
