Frommer's Review

City Bakery offers comfort food that manages to be delicious, nutritious, and eco-friendly. Its salad bar is unlike any other in the city, where the integrity of the ingredients is as important as the taste. This is health food, all right -- roasted beets with walnuts, glistening sautéed greens, lavender eggplant tossed in miso -- but with heart and soul, offering such favorites as French toast with artisanal bacon, flavorful mac 'n cheese, tortilla pie, smoked salmon with all the trimmings on Sunday. The "bakery" refers to the plethora of sinful desserts; kids love the spinning wheel of chocolate and the homemade marshmallows. One caveat: It's a bit pricey for a salad bar, but oh, what good eats.
