Fendu Boulangerie — Restaurant in Honolulu

Finding a really good French bakery in Hawaii feels like I've won the jackpot. This little bakery in the heart of Manoa marketplace is an unexpected little gem that is worth the trip into the valley.

The mango scone tasted just like a plain scone and the cranberry one was also very light, but both were fluffy inside with a crisp exterior. Overall, favorites were the panna cotta with fresh fruit (refreshing and not too sweet), the guava rose shaped cheesecake, and the pear tart. We do wish that there could be less packaging used - we got individual plastic containers for everything which generated a...
