| - On a lazy weekend morning, it doesn't get better than La Baguette.
The ambiance is great. It's a cozy, sunny place with friendly, often bilingual, staff.
First of all, bottomless coffee. You can linger as long as you'd like and they'll keep you caffeinated.
Order at the counter with one of the friendly staff, but your choice will be hard. Gaze into the glass cases and choose from an assortment of generously portioned sweet and savory treats. I highly recommend the classic and simple quiche au chevre. Dotted with tasty hunks of tangy goat cheese, sprinkled with herbs, nestled in a buttery crust. It is perfect!
If you're feeling a bit more hungry, try the Croque Monsieur: thinly sliced ham between melted cheese and thick bread, coated in egg and fried. Yum.
And of course, it's hard to resist a sweet treat. My favorite is the pain au chocolat. A perfect sweet bite to have with the previously mentioned bottomless coffee.
I haven't tried any of the absolutely beautiful galettes or other desserts or taken a loaf of the fresh baked breads, but I plan on doing so soon. It's just that every time I go to La Baguette, I leave feeling so happy and full that I can't even think about my next meal.
