After a satisfying lunch at Homura Yakiniku, we decided to treat ourselves to something sweet and stopped by the newly opened Le Doux Ciel on West Broadway. Located in the same building as the Ultimate Golf Lounge, it’s a charming spot with an inviting, cozy interior — perfect for enjoying a couple croissant and latte while watching the world go by.
The almond croissant was deliciously buttery, with a crisp, flaky exterior and a generous almond filling that had a warm, nutty sweetness. The pastry layers were delicate yet slightly chewy on the inside, creating a wonderful contrast with the crunchy toasted almond slivers on top.

On the other hand, the hazelnut croissant, equally indulgent, had a filling that was smooth, rich, and full of hazelnut flavour. Its slightly earthy and chocolatey undertones made it a decadent treat for any Nutella lover. With the flaky, golden pastry on the outside and a creamy, nutty filling within, the hazelnut croissant added a luxurious twist to the classic.

Paired with these treats, we sipped on a coconut latte and a rose latte. The coconut latte was smooth and velvety, with a gentle sweetness from the coconut that complemented the espresso’s natural notes. It had a tropical aroma that was light yet fragrant, adding a delicate sweetness to each sip.

The rose latte, on the other hand, was floral and fragrant. The rose added an aromatic quality that paired beautifully with the coffee’s robustness, creating a drink that was both comforting and slightly exotic.
As we savoured these flavours, we felt blessed to share such a lovely moment together. Thank you, Lord, for all the blessings.
