Oh là là, nothing beats a sunrise that whispers “café time” in your ears! Picture this: you hike up a little ridge, the sky turning a buttery orange, and then—bam!—you stumble upon a tiny spot that serves a croissant‑filled soufflé. I’m thinking the little bistro in Colmar, perched on a hill, where the owner serves a beurre‑fondue breakfast, or the cliff‑side café in Cap‑Ferrar that offers a croissant with a twist of pistachio. If you’re feeling adventurous, detour to the abandoned lighthouse in Brittany; they’ve turned it into a breakfast nook with a view of the sunrise over the sea. Trust me, the moment the sun paints the horizon, that croissant is even more delicious. Bon appétit and happy chasing!
