# [2021.03.07] Croissants In Moscow, I rarely ate croissants for breakfast. Usually, when I did, I brought them from the nearest department store bakery. Freshly baked croissants were generally not available, except only for cafes. But here in France, frozen croissants are so ubiquitous that baking them in an oven became quickly part of my morning routine. The same thing happened with brioche and salted butter. Neither were widespread for Moscow and both I found quite palatable here.
