Frommer's Review

The traditions of European artisan bread-making and attention to the fine points of texture and crust quickly catapulted Bread & Cie. to local stardom -- they now supply bread to more than 75 local restaurants. Some favorites are available daily, like anise and fig, black olive, and jalapeño and cheese; others are available just 1 or 2 days a week Ask for a free sample or order one of the many Mediterranean-inspired sandwiches. A specialty coffee drink perfectly accompanies a light breakfast of fresh scones, muffins, and homemade granola with yogurt. Seating is at bistro-style tables in full view of the busy ovens. Bread & Cie.'s phone line includes the usual prerecorded directional and hours of operation prompts, as well as a children's ditty sung in Dutch and a museum curator's dissertation on postmodern neo-Gothic impressionism.
