Cute little cafe with lots of pastries and savoury goods as well. We came here for the drinks and…read morewas a bit overwhelmed with how good the pastries looked (didn't know which one to try!) Ended up getting the pistachio and Dubai chocolate croissant. As for the drinks, we got the matcha and the Hojicha with espresso shots. They serve coffee from Hatch (which is probably one of my favourite back in Toronto). Unfortunately, we didn't get to try the croissants fresh but they were still tasted buttery and flakey. The flavour and sweetness was the right amount (perfect for my Asian tastebuds). The drinks were also really good! It was pretty busy inside but there's plenty of seating (might not be great if you want to chill and study but great for hanging out with friends). Service was good, staff is friendly and our order was made fairly quickly. I would come back and try other things on their menu if I'm ever around the area.

Plus, their croissants are big in size and are great for sharing. Their place is beautifully decorated with lots of seating. The workers were kind and friendly. We ordered the Croissant au Pistachio Rose and the Dubai Chocolate Croissant. Both had the perfect amount of flakiness and softness. The Dubai Chocolate was decadent while the Pistachio Rose was nutty with a delicate taste of floral.

Located in the Byward Market this charming little dessert shop specializes in croffles (croissant +…read morewaffle hybrid). This was my first time having a croffle, but as a croissant lover, I definitely enjoyed this more than a regular waffle since it had that flaky texture of a croissant. The croffles were a treat to have, and made fresh after you place your order so it's still warm when it gets served. There are a number of flavors/toppings to choose from, and a few simple drink options (water, tea, coffee, pop) . We ordered the Strawberry and Buenos flavours. The person behind the counter was friendly, and the interior was quite cute with its black tables and chairs, and pink walls.

When he showed me what he got me, I put my nose up to it and said "just a waffle" This is not just a waffle , it's croissant pastry baked in a waffle iron, which takes it to a whole other level in the dessert game. By the time I devoured it, it was cold, but I think I prefer it this way. Def going to make a stop in when I'm in the area.

TL;DR/The Short Version: Little takeout joint that sells…read moresweet and savoury crepes, choux pastries and other French sweets. Crepes were tasty. The Longer Version: Le Petit Paris just opened up September 2024. It's very hidden and I would have never just stumbled upon it, especially considering I'm rarely out in Kanata these days. Luckily I'm a weirdo and one of the things I like to do is poke around on Google Maps zooming in randomly on areas in and around Ottawa looking for new businesses to check out. That's how I found Le Petit Paris. It's tucked in behind a bunch of businesses and is not visible from the street. Fortunately the directions on Google Maps lead me there correctly. They are currently takeout only. The space is very small and there is absolutely no place to sit down and eat there. I got the Parisienne Crepe ($10.90) which contained ham, cheese and mushrooms. The crepe was made fresh. However, they use frozen mushrooms, which they microwaved (in the plastic bag it was packaged in, their space is open so I saw this). I get it, they're new and are still working out how much supply they need, but I feel fresh mushrooms would be better. Also, I'm not a fan of microwaving plastics for health reasons. I also think this crepe would taste better with some fresh spinach. Nonetheless, the crepe was tasty. The crepe itself was soft and had the right amount of chew. The ham was nice and smokey and the cheese provided a nice cheese pull ;) The crepe maker, Nene, was lovely. We had a nice conversation, en français, since she told me she was more comfortable in French. The man at the cash register (I think his name was Guy, because that's what was printed on the back of his shirt, lol) was equally nice and told me about their business and products. He was fluently bilingual, so I spoke in English with him ;) Their choux pastries looked good, but it was the end of the day, so they had limited selection left. I'll need to return earlier in the day to try these. There's free parking available in the lot that's shared with neighbouring businesses. I have a soft spot for small locally-owned independent businesses. I hope they do well and can relocate to a more visible/less tucked away location and maybe even have some seating for dining in, in the future. With more business, hopefully they can use fresh ingredients instead of frozen. Review #37 (2025)

Omg! Mochi donuts have arrived in Ottawa!…read more Note: this shop is actually called "TP Tea X Mochi Bakehouse", as it is both a bubble tea shop and a bakery. This is how I created the listing on Yelp, but the Yelp Moderators changed it to just "TP Tea" and removed the "Mochi Bakehouse" part. {shrug} So like every week I search on Google for "mochi donuts near me" (lol) and I always get hits for places in Toronto. Then one day, I saw this TP Tea X Mochi Bakehouse place on Baseline Rd appear as a search result. Was it for real? It had no reviews and only external pictures. Was it even open yet? I continued to watch that search result for a few days. Then on October 23, 2023, three reviews popped up, one with a picture of bubble tea and the reviews mentioned how tasty the mochi puffs were. Turns out that was their soft opening day. Well, guess what? I went the next day! Their grand opening won't be until December though. I had my heart set on getting some mochi donuts, but they did not have any (and for some reason weren't able to make any), so I got mochi puffs instead. I got 12 for $9.50. I was able to choose 2 flavours, so I got Strawberry and Nutella Hazelnut Butter Cookie Crumble. They were so delicious! They are a bit like loukoumades but with that dense mochi chewiness. The outside was a bit crispy. I loved the texture. Service was friendly and informative. The place is beautiful. They have a pink flowered wall, a nice chandelier, a pink tree and lots of seating. A really cute place for a date or to catch up with friends. It's in the Lone Star Plaza. Lots of free parking in the plaza parking lot. Looking forward to returning to try their mochi donuts! Especially the Ube Coconut flavour.

The French music isn't too loud but quite nice. I introduced my friend to it who didn't know about it and she thanked the owner stating that Kanata/Stittsville needs more bakeries. We both left pleased. She also had an ice latte and an almond croissant. She gave it 5 stars. The prices are up there but competitive with similar places. Cleanliness is hard to keep up on when the bakery is full of people but they tried. The water jug up front never got refilled and that was the only thing I was missing as my cup never got to see any water. All good. We will be back.
