Prantl's is an amazing neighborhood bakery. I walk by on walnut often but have only been in a few times. They have an air vent out to the street blowing out fresh smells of the bakery...oh so tempting!
I recently stopped in with family from out of town and tried a variety of their offerings. The cookies were good, as was one of the apricot pastries. The star of the show though was the burnt almond torte. Seriously, one of the best cakes and deserts period that I have ever had. The cake is moist, rich with flavor without being overly sweet, and the almonds add just enough crunch for some variety and delicate layer of complexity in the taste profile. Stop in and try a piece!
Tip: Take a number to the left when you get in the door.
