| - Gosh, where do I start about how much I love this place? Honestly, it took me way too long to actually come here and I'm ashamed. I had been hearing about its wonder for a while and had the opportunity to try their pastries on a couple occasions, but didn't make enough of an effort to go.
I finally visited when my BFF Lily was visiting from NYC last December. Our experience was top notch. As over zealous as we usually are with food, we needed to try several options. We tried a couple pastries, the Sticky Bun and Banana Cream Tart, plus two savory breakfasts, the Ham and Cheese Waffle Sandwich and Smoked Salmon Breakfast Pizza. Everything was SOO delicious!! The waffle sandwich is ridiculous, especially the rosemary bechamel sauce. Amazing. I ordered it the next time I visited as well. The pizza was wonderful too; great crust/dough and the toppings were good (maybe more Smoked Salmon and less eggs would have been better). The pastries were yummy, my favorite being the Sticky Bun.
We were even more fortunate that the one taking our order and preparing our food was the brilliant chef himself, Chris Herrin. He offered and refilled our waters and he even joined us at our table for a chat! And to our delight, he suggested to take photos with him, so of course we did! Could this guy be any cooler??!
Since then I've tried the PB&J Brioche, Strawerry Crossiant (twice), Coconut Crossiant, Cinnamon Roll, Breakfast Burrito, Banana Macaron, and Vegetable Breakfast Sandwich. Everything has been pleasant and deletable. Those open-face crossiants are creative and unexpectedly my favorite pastries I've had here! I can't wait for my next meal and love the excitement of the day's pastry selection.
