No, we’re not telling you do the Cha Cha Slide this time (although by all means, go ahead); we’re passing on the news of the Soho café that’s dedicated entirely to croissants!
While you may think of croissants as that quick and easy breakfast you grab alongside a strong coffee as you’re running late to your first meeting, Criss Cross has other ideas. They’ve entirely transformed the image of croissants to become a thing of sheer beauty. I mean, just take a look at them…
This can still be your handy breakfast or afternoon snack, but you’re going to be hit with a meld of flavours inside you might not have even imagined could be packed into that pastry. Matcha and blueberry croissant that resembles something like the garden of Eden? Yes bloody please!
Criss Cross’s delectable concoctions are all as easy on the eyes as the lips, with both sweet and savoury options to make your mouth water. Have you ever even considered eating a croissant with soya whiskey, cured salmon and seaweed? Didn’t think so, but I’ll bet you’re feeling peckish now.
The spot opened in Soho in September last year, so you can go eat croissants for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert whenever you please from now on! A truffle and cheese croissant followed by a sweet ice cream filled flavour would certainly not go amiss over at this end…
You’ll find Criss Cross at 49 Old Compton Street, Soho, W1D 6HL (nearest station is Leicester Square). Find more info on their website and follow Criss Cross on Instagram.
