Milk Bar's Thanksgiving Croissant Marks the Official Start of the Holiday Season in NYC

David Chang hates turkey. But Christina Tosi and her squad love to wrap it in celery-salt-flecked croissant dough with cranberry sauce and gravy. This pastry is ferocious. It's weird and heavy and exceptionally dense. One of them is big enough for a full meal, and you can easily eat it while walking down the street, Sietsema-style. Earlier today, a staffer at the East Village location explained that they hit the menu earlier this week, and they will be available at all Milk Bar outposts till a few days after Thanksgiving. Here's a glimpse at how they're made:

when we announce the return of our thanksgiving croissant (turkey, gravy, cranberry sauce inside of a STUFFING FLAVORED DOUGH) it's totally natural to blast #whitneyhouston & feel #allofthefeels
