We did it - we got through our first full week of service, and we did it while being down one pastry assistant! š
What an extraordinary week it has been. Youāve come from right here at home, from Fargo/Moorhead, Alexandria, Glenwood (and even further!) to experience our scratch-made French pastries and delicious espresso beverages. I speak on behalf of our whole team when I say THANK YOU. Iāve been working the girls so hard this week - the long hours and late days laminating dough by hand and shaping croissants, mixing pĆ¢te Ć choux dough FLAWLESSLY, rolling out SO many butter blocks by hand, the back-bending work scrubbing our floors and washing pastry rings, handling rushes with you lined up out the door for the first time ā and doing it all with beautiful smiles on their faces! I just would not be able to do it without my beautiful Coquettes š„¹š And now? A quick break to breathe at all in š Our cases will look a little different this week as we introduce sandwiches for lunch service and plan for our grand opening on Saturday, August 1st, but you can count on your favorite croissants, tarts, and Ć©clairs, and a limited batch of macarons all week long- stay tuned! š
