OUTSIDE VIEW
Don't let the whiteness outside of the Bon Bon fool you. That is plush white grass you are stepping on. Past the fence stands before you a large establishment built from rich, dark wood cut to fit a specific cozy design. The sound of bubbling, trickling water chases away the worldly sounds that would even dare to follow. The fountain out front is surrounded by pink and white cherry blossom trees and a single apple tree that has fresh apples to pick from during spring and summer time.

Two doors allow entrance into the Bon Bon. The left side of the building (where the goods are) has full sized windows that wrap around to the side and back of the building making it easy for people to just stand around and oogle the noms from the outside.

ROOFTOP VIEW
Coming up from the third floor one is immediately greeted by green grass and crystal clear water from a pair of infinity pools that bubble up seemingly endlessly from nature clinging fountains. Flowers and plants surround these fountains in attempt to give a natural sense of calm and relaxation. Following the path between these two flowing stretches of water leads to a open area dedicated to benches surrounding hedges and purple-blue roses (a few red roses seemed to be scattered among them). Hiding in the center of the hedge is a bird bath which birds tend to visit on and off so shhh..maybe you will see one come by...

FIRST FLOOR
When walking in there is an immediate swarm of smells ready to assault ones senses. Pastries, sweets, breads, and all sorts of goodies for the eyes to feast on and tempt the stomach to growl. The glass cases make an L-shape structure with the customer counter at the elbow. Behind the counter are shelves filled with cakes, baskets of fresh bread, pies, and more.

Stairs behind the counter leads up to the kitchen which is off limits to most everyone.

Decor carpet is on the floor at the other side of the room with a few tables and chairs for people to claim. Another pair of stairs to the far end leading to the second floor-

SECOND FLOOR
The second floor is decorated with artwork, mostly unnamed artists but one might spot a name or two that is familiar like Oliver Granger Jr. No..one won't see one of Katt's pieces up there.

There is a koi pool surrounded by tables and now that a person isn't as near the pastries it is easy to be overwhelmed by the earthy wooden smell.

(To note..the area that is closed off is the kitchen and yes..for viewing purposes it looks empty because..well..you don't need to know what is in there! You will never get to go in there mwhahha!)

THIRD FLOOR VIEW
A cozy place is the third floor, open space with a few tables scattered to the back and a large hearth to the front. The hearth has a swarm of pillows at the foot and a large couch to the side. Much like the second floor there is some art here and there as well as that outdoorsy/tree smell. Also from above is the lulling sound of moving water.


Notes:

The Bon Bon does have a Batten Inc. Security System though this system isn't easily seen if at all.

All windows and glass (such as for the cases) are made of smear proof glass so people can touch touch touch all they want!
