They say Cincinnati is the “San Diego of the Midwest,” but you might argue that it’s more like France after trying a croissant from Lockland’s Baudry French Pastries. The taste of an authentic French patisserie reigns supreme thanks to owner Frederic Baudry. He folds seemingly infinite layers of flaky, delicate dough into each croissant and then dusts them with a generous layer of powdered sugar for the most satisfyingly crispy-chewy bite.
If you come across these pastries at the Hyde Park or Montgomery farmers’ markets, there’s no need to ask yourself whether you should give them a try. You need only ask which flavor to try first: tender blueberry with a sweet cheese filling, or the crunchy almond straight out of a holiday movie?
