| - This is a decent bakery, above average. However, since it carries Thomas Keller's name as an offshoot of Bouchon Bistro, which is an excellent spot for a meal, it doesn't quite measure up.
The turkey sandwich comes with cheddar(?), onion, and watercress on pecan bread. It was ok - you can tell the ingredients are good - but the sandwich itself wasn't outstanding. Most of the items seem to just miss the mark: the bacon(?), egg, and cheese croissant comes with a beautiful, fat slice of omelet but it's topped with a thin sliver of cheese; the Cobb salad is huge but bacon wasn't listed as an ingredient so I passed on that.
The macarons are a nice size, great for splitting with a friend, and the croissants are buttery without feeling greasy. I'll be back for that Kouign Amann.
