I was lucky enough to find this adorable bakery/restaurant through a Metromix search. While they are primarily a bakery, they serve both breakfast and lunch. The menu is limited, but that just makes the selection easier. The lunch menu consisted of one soup - butternut squash - along with a nice assortment of comfort foods such chili, mac and cheese, and chicken pot pie. My Mom had the beef brisket sandwich which she loved. She's pretty hard to please and makes a mean brisket herself so her finishing the whole sandwich was quite impressive. I opted for the harvest autumn veggie sandwich. While I loved the assortment of veggies including eggplant, roasted red peppers, beets, etc. along with fresh mozzarella, I would have preferred the sandwich to be heated rather then served cold. My sandwich came with a red cabbage slaw the was lightly seasoned with a sesame dressing - delicious. We brought some of the many varieties of sweets they offer home with us and so far they are yummy. The place is small with only a few tables. Street parking during the week was easy, but I'm not sure how it will be on the weekend. Give it a try and I'm sure you will be as pleased as I was.
