Dominique Ansel's bakery is finally open in L.A. I was actually thinking to go to Tokyo location while I was in Japan but I couldn't make it so I got really excited when I found out they are actually opening in L.A. I went about a week or 2 weeks after they open. I went on Wednesday and there was no line. I've heard you have to wait about an hour on weekends. So go there on weekdays if you wanna avoid the wait. Also they do offer 2 hour parking validation. There's machine you can scan yourself right by the entrance.

So many baked goods. I still regrets how come I didn't get cronuts? Well, next time.

I'm gonna try "california roll" next time. It's interesting and I heard it's good.

So here's what we got.

Almond croissant $4.75

Mini-me cake $7
Rich chocolate cake topped with mini meringues
was too sweet and too rich for us.

Paris-LA $7.25
Paris breast with Muscavado Ganache, Orange blossom ganache and Raspberry Chambord jam

Cotton-soft cheesecake $6.75 and Chestnut rose cassis Mont Blanc $8

Chestnut cream accented with rose and cassis, set atop a salted butter cookie and finished with a vanilla ganache and vanilla meringue baton on top.
Chestnut cream tasted like purple sweet potato, very unique. Absolutely beautiful Mont Blanc.
