Sharon Yeo recently interviewed shop owner Garner Beggs for a feature in Vue Weekly.  Here is a quote, where Garner talks about the importance of croissant education:

Beyond filling a patisserie void in the city, Beggs has taken on the role of an educator as well. He is passionate about ensuring that patrons are keenly aware of the products. “I want people to know why it’s a croissant,” he explains. “It’s not just a funny-shaped white bun that you get out of a bin. There’s a culture behind it, a history and a technique, and a reason behind the technique.” It seems like Beggs never really did leave his educational tendencies behind. “I absolutely want to teach people about it,” he laughs, “because I guess I’m still a teacher.”
