| I just got back from my first ever visit to Paris and I am pining for the pastries. Is there anywhere in the area (preferably NOVA, but i'm willing to travel farther) that sells really good croissants, baguettes, and other French baked goods? |

Amazing little place in Rockville! A bit tricky to find but the Yelp reviews give some easy directions. Beware, it's cash only. |

| I used to work at La Madeleine - don't know how it compares to actual Parisian pastries, but it's pretty freakin' good. |
