Divine Delvigne

Delvigne sells their marvelous croissants and breads at both the Culver City Farmers Market and the Studio City Farmers Market, but they also have a Window on Venice Blvd that is open on Saturday from 10am-1pm if you want to pick up a French treat for the week-end. You may order ahead until 2pm for a next day pick up from their menu.

Since January is the time of year for my favorite, the galette des rois, I ordered ahead for a Saturday window pick up via their Instagram page and while I was there, got a few gigantic croissants for $4 each :)

They use grass fed butter from France and the flavor and layers belie their expertise.

The galette des rois for $35 was a very generous portion for 8 with delicate flakey layers surrounding the classic almond filling. The baker, Samuel, told me that he used an almond for the fève to help cut down on tooth damage that can result from using the old fashioned porcelain figurines ;)

I didn't need a paper crown to feel like a Queen eating this :)
