06/24/20- I've actually been taking my children here for years and they love it. I mean, love. It. They love it so much that they're willing to spend hard earned pocket money here and this place is expensive. So let me tell you about Tous Les Jours. It feels like a high-end mom-and-pop but is anything but. It is a part of a wider company (which explains why it features calories, weights and ingredients for their product). The name is obviously French but this is located in the Asian anchor store Asiana. The vast majority of the pastries are baked every morning, fresh, which means that about an hour before they close every night, whatever's left goes on sale buy one get one free, because they can't sell it the next day. Sometimes this deal can be amazing if you're talking about the more expensive loaves of bread, but even if it comes to a pricey croissant, it's nice to get 2 for what might be considered a more "decent" price. Now, let me tell you that even though I keep saying it's expensive here, it is WELL WORTH IT. The food is such high quality that you are getting what you pay for. So if you want cheep eats, go get cheep eats. If you want amazing pastries, breads, jams, cakes, etc., come here. There is something that I wasn't happy with and that's their website as it doesn't show enough product as far as I'm concerned. So last time I went in there, I started snapping pictures. Please excuse the quality; there were other shoppers to consider, the food wasn't always close to their labels, and my hands have a tremor (a medical issue) so sometimes the images are blurry. But I wanted to give anyone interested in the scope of what's available (I took around 80 pictures but I can't tell how many uploaded... or if I uploaded duplicates). There are chilled foods, especially when it comes to fresh whipped creams (like the Baby Choux). There are warm foods (like the curry croquette). There are cold sandwiches (like the egg salad sandwich... the ingredients are impressive, trust me). Anything croissant is light, flaky and buttery (like the Green Tea Cream Croissant filled with green tea cream). But if it's smooshy and doughy you want, there are those too (like The+ Milk). And if I accidentally took more than one pictures of the same thing, I apologize, but these were taken over 2 days. Please note that while Tous Les Jours opens at 7:00am, there will only be, maybe, 1/8 of the product available. They will still be baking. Over half of the product should be out between 9:30am and 10:00am, with the rest following shortly. And the most popular go quickly, but it's less busy on weekdays. I believe that everyone should try at least 2 items because sometimes you don't always pick the one that appeals to you most and you wouldn't want to miss out on future awesomeness because you got the one that was most meh to your mouth. And please excuse me again, I'mm only speaking on behalf of my kids and mom, I don't actually eat here because I CAN'T! (hahahahahaha) I have Celiac disease and can't have pastries. shrug But their food is beautiful and well made. Time and craftsmanship is gone into baking every piece. I would highly recommend trying them out. Who knows, maybe stop by during the half-off-hour-before-closing and get 4 pieces to sample. They'll be the least favorites, but will still be amazing enough to (probably) encourage you to go back some time during the early afternoon...

First Impressions I discovered Tous Les Jours while popping into Asiana Market, and the scent of warm bread basically reeled me in like a cartoon character.
Atmosphere & Vibe The bakery is tucked into a cozy corner of the market. It’s clean, charming, and always buzzing with quiet energy. It’s grab-and-go friendly but cute enough to linger if you find a seat.
What I Tried I grabbed the tiramisu (delicate, not overly sweet), a mocha bake (bready with a whipped cream center), and a slice of cheese cake (unexpectedly light and fluffy). Everything tasted fresh, balanced, and thoughtfully made; no heavy-handed sugar bombs here.
Service & Experience The staff was warm, efficient, and happy to explain the bestsellers. It felt like they actually cared about your experience, which makes a difference.
Pro Tips or Heads-Up Arrive mid-morning for the best pastry variety; late shoppers, like me, miss out. Also, cakes go fast on weekends, so preorder if you’ve got your eye on one.
Final Verdict Tous Les Jours is the kind of place that makes you want to come back tomorrow and try everything you missed today. A must-stop for carb lovers and sweet tooths alike.
