During my visit to Corsica, I was surprised at how GOOD the pastries were there! I guess they are technically in France, but the pastries were almost as good as the ones in Paris. The bread was a bit saltier and had a nice, chewy "bite" to it. At this Boulangerie I sampled a cream-filled croissant and it was super tasty. The cream was a bit "off" but I'm not sure if that's just a Corsican thing (other creams in the pastries from other bakeries in town also had the same strange taste, but now that I'm back in the U.S. I'm having nightmares about the cream puff scene in "Van Wilder"). This place is worth a stop if your sweet tooth is raging, but be warned: the employees here were NOT friendly at all. Not only aloof, but pretty rude. That seemed to be the norm in Corsica. read more
