Frommer's Review

This local favorite launched by chefs from Toqué! started out as an earthy bakery painted in reds, pinks, and gold curlicues, then added table service and transformed itself into a full-fledged café. It still sells near-perfect baguettes -- a lot of the bread is out the door by midmorning -- as well as many croissants, pastries, and specialty breads. Put your sandwiches together from the cheeses and sausages in the cold case, or choose from their interesting compositions, including a grilled portobello mushroom with a purée of olives and goat cheese, served on heavy, funky pottery or wood cutting board. The only pity is that this eminently appealing spot is not open Sundays, Mondays, or evenings.
