I can only say that if Payard was in my neighborhood, I'd have to get a part-time job to afford how much I would spend there!\n\nPayard is not easy on the wallet, but if you can get past that, it is a treat to eat at, or pick something up to go.  My wife and I ate there for breakfast two days in a row, not counting stopping in for a snack (best ice cream sandwiches EVER...see below), and for cookies at their express place in the casino.\n\nThe breakfast sandwiches are first class.  My favorite was the Salmon Croque Monsieur...delicately smooth, smoked salmon and cream cheese between luxuriously buttered pieces of bread.  Very rich, but very delicious.\n\nAnother favorite mentioned in reviews regularly, was the almond croissant.  We had it both at room temp and toasted.  I liked hot, my wife liked it better not.  It was really a tremendous pastry either way...ask for it how you like it!\n\nOur favorite items there were the ice cream sandwiches...At $5 a pop, we had $20 worth in one sitting.  I know that sounds gluttonous, and maybe it was...but they came in 4 flavors and we weren't leaving without trying them all...and it was money well spent.\n\nThe magic is that these are two French macarons, about 4-5 inches long, with boldly flavored, creamy textured ice cream in between.  Perfect bite, after perfect bite.\n\nThere's a Payard in NYC's Soho neighborhood...It has already been mentally bookmarked for my next trip there!
