Cronut Bakery Closed Due to Possible Mouse Problem

Dominique Ansel Bakery, famous for the Cronut, is closed due to a mouse problem.

Eeeeek! Bad news for all you Cronut fans out there. Eater is reporting that Dominique Ansel Bakery has been closed today by health inspectors, possibly due to a rodent problem

While the bakery usually sports a stellar "A" rating, an earlier health report also stated that there was "evidence of vermin" on the premises. Though the new report hasn't been made public yet, it's probably not a coincidence that just yesterday Gothamist posted a video of a mouse hiding beneath some pastry trays.

Though anyone who has worked in a restaurant will tell you that spotting a mouse or two isn't cause for too much concern, hopefully Ansel and his team get the place up to snuff soon. Until then, check out City Guide's recent trip to the bakery (above) where we got a taste of Ansel's latest hit creation, the Cookie Shot.
