We were fortunate enough to benefit from the Twitter exchange between Francis Lam and Francisco Migoya. The question was posed about whether croissants could and should be fried. Francisco quickly took the ball and ran with it and now serves these incredible fried croissants with vanilla sugar at The Apple Pie Bakery at the CIA. From idea to execution in a flash, with a little help from playing together in the same sandbox. And how did we benefit? We crushed too many of these to count along with pretty much everything else in the pastry case while we were speaking at the CIA earlier this week. So really, this is a heartfelt thanks to Francis and Francisco. Keep on tweeting! (As if there is any question, we do have plans to start deep frying pigs in a blanket.)
