F. B.F. Bastard: Eater: "Incredible, aromatic cardamom bun, quince tart, pitch perfect pain au chocolat, sesame-topped ham and cheese croissant, (which) infuses the savory fragrance of the ham deep inside the dough."

DanDan: Excellent coffees (but $$) and pastries, in particular sesame loaf was incredible, pan au chocolat and cardamom bun both great. Very busy.

Prins P.Prins Polo: Great bread + pastries, but in terms of coffee, La Cabra has always been a Nordic second league to me. Pourovers lack complexity and depth, roast on the darker side.
