Well, if you've just returned from France and you are yearning for a baguette, a macaron or a croissant then make your way to Choux Cafe in Swanbourne. The plain croissants are probably the best I've had anywhere, including France. And they are huge.The cafe opens super early every day and if you live nearby the smell of croissants baking in the morning is irresistible.The cafe has seating outside, inside the door and in a courtyard cafe. This is a great place for your morning coffee (and croissant) and lunch and is super popular with all the locals. Oh, and they do AMAZING cakes for all matter of celebration.

They are flaky, crunchy, and delicious. Perfect for a snack after a day of surfing. Take them home, add some butter and jam, and you'll feel like you're in heaven.
