kboo, do you mean Fairway's upstairs restaurant? Read in the Times yesterday that Mitchell London was back there again. I haven't tried the crullers but have admired them at Murray's--will have to pick one up next time.
DrivingRain, glad you liked Pink Tea Cup!
My current pastry fave is Bouley Bakery (helps that I live nearby). Some stuff is just overpriced (had a lemon poppy muffin I didn't care for, and their white breads are bland to me), but I think their croissants are excellent, and I unfortunately discovered the other day how good their chocolate chip cookies are. They've got tables out on the sidewalk which are nice in the current weather, but I always take stuff home to where my beloved espresso machine is waiting.
