  • Sometimes you have to give props to your doctor for being located near downtown, because otherwise you'd never find an occasion to stop in a joint like City Bakery, considering you work many miles away and City Bakery is long shut by the time you leave the office, thus reducing your chances to ever eating here to pretty much zero. But today, I went. And it's about time. It pretty much seemed like a "ladies who lunch" crowd to me inside (who originally coined this term "ladies who lunch" anyway? Because that's exactly what it was like in there. Brilliant.) I took a look at the menu.... A lot of the sandwiches and salads looked great, but with cheeses that would make my stomach look like a wrung-out towel 45 minutes later. "Just get a sandwich without the cheese, then, dumb ass," I hear you utter. Well, to me, you either get the sandwich the way it's meant to be or you don't get it at all. It's like going to In N' Out and just getting a bun with onions and lettuce. Yeah, my point exactly. Anyway, I got the curried chicken sandwich with white bean salad. While waiting for my order to be brought to my table, I wandered around the Bentley Gallery for a while (the Poison Penn bookstore closed down and is also now part of the gallery). By the time I got back, my sandwich was ready, and man, it was one good sandwich. Now, I've had a pretty good chicken curry sandwich at Copper Star for about half the price (my sandwich here at City was $9.50), but I guess you pay for the whole shpeal that you're eating Arcadia Farms food. Afterwards I ordered an oatmeal cranraisin cookie, which they served to me on a plate with a fork. A fork, people. Who eats cookies with a fork? Is that the new way to eat cookies these days? I didn't get the memo. Anyway, all in all, I'd say City Bakery is a great joint with good, fresh food. Minus a star for its extremely limited hours - if downtown is ever going to revitalize, all these service businesses need to take the plunge and open on weekends. It's a chicken and egg argument, I know, and a debate much larger that just one restaurant. But props to these guys for taking the risk and opening up in not the choicest of neighborhoods. 4 stars.
