Fantastic Bakery

If you are looking for fresh artisanal bread this is the place. My favorites are the Ciabatta, chewy crust, soft interior and the seven grain, soft, nutty flavor, with a hint of honey. Their bread is very popular, so get there early, especially on the weekends.

They also make fantasic deserts from cookies and bars (try the S'mores bars) to fresh fruit tarts to mousse cakes, which are as decadent as they are beautiful. My favorite cake is a toss up between their chocolate carrot cake, sweet and creamy, or their flourless chocolate cake, dark, dense, melts in your mouth.

The weekend special to die for is their chocolate almond croissant bread pudding, it's one of the beast things I've ever put in my mouth.
