monsieur claude is the nicest man in the west village!!! he may just look a little tired becuase hes been baking these delicious bites of heaven all morning but he always wraps up my napoleans and eclairs with a smile!!! he even held onto a wallet I lost in his patisserie, and i must say, i go to paris every year and still prefer his pastries and croissants, yum!
I love J'Adore! (Bilingual redundance!) I was so happy for them to see them expand. The way the smell of coffee and croissants wafts onto 23rd St. is diabolically tempting.

When I lived on that block, I made several stops weekly for his pain au chocolat, which definitely rivals the best I've had anywhere.
And Monsieur Claude would always push me to use my mediocre French; then he'd give me shit about my pronunciation.
God, I miss the city.

Financier does excellent croissants and the patisserie is popping all over lower manhattan.
