Re: Beard Papa\'s Cream Puffs
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] Tank, They are so-so cream puffs. They are delicious, because they are cream puffs. But they are not as good as anything you'll get from a good bakery. Cue Paluka w/ comments about how awesome they are. For a fast-food snack, I agree they are pretty damn great. [/ QUOTE ] El D, How about from a business perspective? Good in trendy, high traffic areas basically? [/ QUOTE ] High walking traffic is probably enough. One on B'way and Astor I think.

I JUST SAW THIS ON THE PHANTOM GOURMET. I want them bad. [/ QUOTE ] Yeah, there's one at Quincy Market. They are good, but not worth a special trip.

I just heard about these recently but havent had the opportunity to try them yet. Apparantly a pretty cult following in Asia. Any thoughts or experiences? Worth a drive to try? [/ QUOTE ] These things are insanely good. scrub

They are awesome. They are basically just cream puffs but for some reason (I'm assuming secret Japanese government technology) they are amazing. They melt in your mouth mmmm.... Are there a bunch in the US? The only one I was aware of was the one on Canal St in NYC. [/ QUOTE ] there's one near 42nd & 6th - it's inside this lunch place called zaiya. Here's the rest of the info: http://www.muginohousa.com/main.php?nav=locations

[/ QUOTE ] El D - I've never had a cream puff at a bakery that is as good as Beard Papa's Green tea or vanilla bean creme puffs, and my step father was a baker. I want to visit the bakeries you visit if you can really get better, because its pretty hard to beat Beard Papa... but I'd love to try! TT [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

Re: Beard Papa\'s Cream Puffs
Fairly weak as cream puffs go. There's one in the Hollywood & Highland complex right next to the Chinese Theatre.
