New York Times Article:
"Is the World's Best Croissant Made in Australia? - Oliver Strand"
www.nytimes.com/2016/04/11/t-...
So I came across the NY Times article a fewyears ago about Lune Croissanterie being arguably the finest (croissant) you'll find anywhere n the world. And since then, i've been wanting to try it for myself.
A couple weeks ago, i finally had the opportunity to go to Melbourne and head on over to Lune Croissanterie, and of course i decided to go all out. I ended up ordering myself:
a Traditional French Croissant: 'Traditional French croissant, prepared over 3 days'
AUD $5.90; USD $4.11
an Almond Croissant: 'The original Croissant aux Amandes, prepared with almond frangipane & garnished with a healthy amount of flaked almonds'
AUD $9.50; USD $6.60
an Apple & Feijoa Crumble Cruffin: 'Filled with an apple and feijoa compote and vanilla crème pâtissière, topped with streusel and double cream'
AUD $8; USD $5.60
a soy coffee
AUD $4.50; USD $3.15
My favourite was actually the plain one, it was so buttery and flaky, and soft all at the same time. If you have a sweet tooth you'll definitely like cruffin / almond croissant, both of which are sweeter than the traditional croissant.
Definitely recommend this a melbourne 'thing to do' if you're ever here. the croissants her aren't on the cheap side, but definitely at least give the Traditional croissant a go!

ABOUT ME:
I'm a millennial who quit my corporate job in banking & finance in December 2018 to live life the way I want, everyday. I knew something wasn’t right when days all started to blur together and nothing stood out.
I want to see different places. I want to experience new things. I want to meet new people. I want to do something for the first time again.
This is the beginning of my journey to doing that, and to figuring out how I can generate income that will allow me to live life my way, every day.

Best croissant - Lune - Melbourne lol 😆 Best coffee - every where in Melbourne. Best donuts - Walkers, Daniels, Shortstop, Doughboys - Melbourne. Best weather - Melbourne - you can experience 4 seasons in one day! 😋 😁😁 we’re proud Melbournians I guess 😋

When they were still in Elwood (the suburb name) and in their first opening year, when they only produced croissants for 60 customers, we queued for 1 hour at 5 am, grabbed a ticket and queue again for another half an hour until our number got called and finally got the croissants. 1 customer could only get 6 croissants max. What an epic journey to get Lune Croissants 😂 but it’s so worth it. Our favourite is the almond frangipane, you had the right one, Janice! Whoaaa fejioa!! we love fejioa 😍 didn’t know they made the croissant from it. Great video Janice 👍🏻

The croissants look amazing, I will definitely have to check them out when I next go Melbourne. My own best croissant experience was when I travelled to France and stayed in boutique vintage cinema themed hotel (with lots of 1930's & 1940's movie posters on the walls of the hotel rooms) in Paris, which had the best croissants and hot chocolate drink for breakfast.

A secret tip for those who reside in Sydney. If you are ever going to buy bread or pastries or croissants you dont go the French patisseries, you go to the ones owned by the Vietnamese. They make the best bread in the world. No offence to the French, this is my limited experience in Sydney :)

Thank you! Another great video. It was just enough of a taste to let us know if we want to try for ourselves. Not too wordy or lengthy. And it was nice to have your family's perspective included. Your Mother was so impressed by the flakiness! Leave it to our siblings to not appreciate our trek we made to lug home goodies in our luggage, but family can be the most honest.
