Best bread ever. Baked goods are tremendous. Amazing place. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Atmosphere: It looks and feels like an indie coffee bar in Highland Park. That means it's larger than the Google Maps photos suggest. If one's nose pays attention it will smell the stuffiness of an older Illinois, not French, building, such as a really old public library. That's kind of cool. Service: Mostly younger locals, likely high school aged, work here. They're Highland Park (so better off) Gen Z meaning they're a bit shy but that doesn't mean they don't give decent service. Food: The always mentioned Croque Madame is nothing special. Too much bread and not enough of the rest. The coffee is also meh like. The vibe makes this eatery busier than those two offerings. The pastries however are nice and worth taking out once in a while. The Royal almond cake, chocolate mousse and hazelnut crunch reminds me of a really, really, *really* good tiramisu. Lemon Rasperry[1] cake madeleine cake, raspberry[2] coulis and lemon cream brings a Midwest tartness to the tongue. And Macarons beat what's found at any grocery store or Costco or that Des Plaines Polish bakery I frequent because That Little Guy's sweet flavors do not overpower. They're just here.
