On my quest for best pastries in Montreal, I had to stop in to Mamie Clafoutis based on all the positive reviews. I must say that I had made way too many pastry stops the previous 4 days and was a bit \"sweeted out.\" However, I was glad we made the round here on our last day in Montreal. I went with the review consensus and got the pistachio chocolate croissant, which was excellent. As someone put it, perfect balance between sweet and savory. We also tried out the apricot cheese danish which was to die for. Unbelievable. Also glad I got my \"fruit\" in for the day. \n\nMy only hesitation with the 5-star rating was the ambience. It seemed a little too casual and not as cozy as some of the other bakeries I went to were. The clientele seemed a bit touristy although I don't think that was their doing. I did really like the direct view into the kitchen to see what they were making. But, the pastries were delicious enough to override the ambience. 5 star!
