This is real bread people. I'm talking big holes in the crumb, soft moist inside and a SERIOUS crust. I don't think I've had anything that can compare. I was seriously stunned by how fantastically well each and every style of bread was executed.
Also, Sara, the proprietor cares about where every single ingredient in her shop comes from. Every veggie comes from a farmer she knows (when it's not coming from her own farm! that's right, her own farm!) Every cheese it artisan and hand crafted --- many of them using local milk.
On top of that -- and one of my personal favorite things about Millstone-- is that there is a FABULOUS wine selection...even (gasp) by the glass to choose from along with one of her fantastic bites. Too little people care about taking any time to create a decent wine list unless they are in a huge space with a large cellar.... a small but creative and well crafted list can be achieved-- Sara has done it in her shop.
Catch her bread at the Davidson Farmer's Market as well.
No complaints here--- just wish I lived a little closer!
