Le Croissant
One of our favorite things to do in Provence is to go to a local café for breakfast (le petit dejeuner) and order a coffee and a croissant, the wonderful fragrant and decadent pastry that literally melts in your mouth. Life is good.
le croissant, m, (croissant) a flaky, buttery crescent-shaped French puff pastry often served with jam for a continental breakfast.
