What the experts are saying
"...its the kouign amann...(say it, queen uhmahn, but the smiling server behind the counter will understand coon uhmahn or probably any combination of a k and an a, because there you are staring lustfully into the bakery case and theyve seen that look before.) as indefatigable bakery trekkers we can triumphantly pronounce rusticas kouign amann the best in the area because were pretty sure its the only one in the area...and that salty-sweet combination is part of what makes the kouign amann so irresistible...rustica bakes its kouign amann dangerously dark, taking it to the edge of burnt in an admirable feat of culinary brinksmanship...(the french arent afraid of browning their pastries and i sometimes wonder if american pastry cases just look raw to french eyes.) a kouign amann can be baked in big, sliceable dessert sizes, like it usually is in france, but rustica makes hefty three-ounce rounds (more crust!) that you can share if you can talk your companion out of yet another croissant...visit website tricia cornell 3 comments dave09/10/2012reply i told you so! ok, maybe not you, but i first started pimping out rusticas kouign amann on the interwebs to whoever would listen in 2006 after my first one...there are very, very few things that can make a rustica kouign amann better, but kopplins coffee is one of them...and, to your question, ive only seen kouign amann once or twice over the years outside of rustica..."
