I’m lucky that some fragment of French baking has permeated into Canada by way of Québec. We have decent Pain-Au-Chocolat (although they call it chocolatine in Québec) and Croissants in a lot of Canadian cafés and bakeries (small ones, not chains). Not as good as in France, but still decent. I remember thinking I was going to have trouble with continental breakfast since I’m used to eating a big breakfast, but the French viennoise breakfast with some fruit and coffee is actually great.
I also really enjoyed the waffles when I visited Belgium.
