Pain Plaisir

How this place has any success, given Bucharest if full of lovely bakeries is beyond me. I went here two times, the baked goods, pastries etc look very good but they lack in taste. The bread is ok.

I got a pistachio croissant that looked like a 10 and tasted like a 4. The cream was nice but the pastry itself tasted industrial, I have had better croissants at Kaufland but they didn't cost 25 lei.

The New York Rolls are sooo expensive and sooo small and they have the consistency of a brick.

This place is wildly wildly overpriced for what they offer.

You have to try the kimki croissants

We got a raspbberry NY Roll and an apple cookie and the cookie was just amazingly good, but the NY Roll was pretty hard to eat (the filling was too sweet and the croissant hardened). We wanted to try more of the pastries but unfortunately that's all we could find on a Wednesday afternoon. And the apple cookie was very good and worth the 2 euros but the NY Roll did really dissapoint. Maybe try setting more realistic prices for the quality served and try to have most of the items from the menu at all times.

The baguette is very very good. However, the pistachio Roll was 6/10; and the Gallette des rois tasted and looked very industrial/not fresh 4/10. Total for these 3 products, almost 150 RON !!

I reached the location close to the end of the day and the shop keeper was not that happy to see or serve me. I had 3 types of pastry and paid 76 RON. We had 2 rolls, one with raspberry and one with chocolate and another pastry with hazelnut. All 3 were good but not that good to deserve 5 euros each in my opinion. The chocolate one is good if you like chocolate, the raspberry one was refreshing and the hazelnut one was the best in my opinion for the resemblance to kinder bueno.

The New York Rolls are quite tasty, not too sweet, light and airy... but they're definitely overpriced.

Rolls are good but I had a carving for a Pain au chocolat, I got one and it was pretty bad 🙈. Cute bakery though.
