I have dreamt of my return to Figaro ever since I tried their magical whole wheat croissant a few years ago...\n\nI finally had a chance to brunch there today, but the results were somewhat mixed.\n\nThe (-)s\n-They seem understaffed - we waited 45 minutes to eat. Do not go their with a grumbling stomach!\n-They were out of the whole wheat croissant by noon on the Saturday, but our waitress only informed us of this an hour after we had put in our order - and after she tried to serve us plain croissant without asking us. I was devastated, until I actually tried their plain croissant.\n-The avocado salad was pretty average tasting.\n-The freshly squeezed grapefruit juice was served at a lukewarm temperature.\n\nThe (+)s\n-The plain croissant was perfectly crispy without being too buttery or flaky.\n-The cappuccino was just right.\n-The large terrace is very pleasant and well shaded.
