DONQ French Bakery: The Kind of Place You Walk Into “Just to Look” and Leave with 10 🥖🥯

#travelinginchina #taipei #donqfrenchbakery You know that feeling when you tell yourself you’re just going to browse, and then five minutes later, you’re holding a tray stacked with croissants, pastries, and a baguette you suddenly can’t live without? That’s what happens at DONQ French Bakery. This place isn’t playing around when it comes to bread. Over 100 years of baking experience (originally from Kobe, Japan) means they’ve perfected the art of flaky, buttery, crispy, and soft—all in the right places. I grabbed a pain au chocolat because, let’s be real, resisting one is impossible. One bite in, and I was already planning my next visit. It’s the kind of bakery where everything smells amazing, looks even better, and tastes like a little moment of happiness. If you’re anywhere near Taipei’s Zhongshan District, do yourself a favor and go. Just don’t pretend you’re only going to “look.” What Makes It Great? 🥐 Next-level croissants that deserve their own fan club 🥖 Baguettes so perfect they could be a personality trait 🤷♂️ Good luck leaving with just one thing
