Got a favorite artisan bakery in your area? Rave about it here.
Mmmmhh....just thinking about this cafe makes my mouth water. I was introduced to this bakery because I drove by and saw a Stumptown Coffee sign. Which happens to be my favorite and is gaining popularity all over Portland. I pulled in and was blown away. A stylish, warm, modern and wonderful setting along with delicious bread and cool people. Their focaccia is my favorite. Check out the site: http://cremabakery.com/
Next weekend my husband and I are going to England and will be visiting the following counties:
Oxfordshire
Gloucestershire
Shropshire
West Yorkshire
We will also be in London for a day or two. Does anyone have any bakery recommendations for any of these places? Thanks in advance.

Hi I was wondering whether anyone has tried to access Dan's Design Worksheets from page 167 in the book Bread Baking. An Internet link to Wiley is provided but it would appear to me that one would have to be a registered teacher to use them. I guess I could photocopy from the book if need be. Thanks Bakerincanada
Stopped for a pie and salad today at Luzzo's on 1st Ave. between 12th and 13th. The bread served as an appetizer was crusty, crunchy and flavorful. The salads were excellent - best cherry tomatoes I have ever had. The pizza was great - crunchy, tasty and impossibly thin crust, and a nice tangy tomato sauce with buffalo mozz. Wife and kids had a plain pie, and I ordered a small with anchovies. The fish was great, and with just one filet per slice, the flavors were nice and balanced.
Hey All!
Currently, I live in Cyprus (I am here for 2 years- done with the 1st year, one more to go) and I do a lot of home-based artisan baking. I will be visiting Toronto soon with my girlfriend from Michigan. I would love to hear any recommendations regarding good restaurants, pizzerias, bakeries, cookware/baking supplies shops that are in the area...
Thanks,
Hazim
Hi everyone. I am going to be visiting family in Cheyenne and then Denver during the next 9 days and would love some suggestions of bakeries to visit. Most of the people in my family are "foodie" types and have lots of plans in the works for places to go for dinner, but not bakeries or pastry shops. Any help would be appreiciated! Thanks.

My husband I and I will be at my brother's place in Manhattan for a week starting Friday 13th. Yikes that had better be a good omen. I go there often but have only scraped the surface of great places to get bread/deli items and restaurants. Any suggestions most welcome. Caroline
I have started doing an apprenticeship/training as a bread baker and was asked by my now boss where I see myself in a year. Baking isn't what I went to school for, but I love it (even though I'm just starting out doing it on a commercial basis).
I thought I'd start a quick thread listing where to get supplies locally in southern Ontario. Please feel free to comment with your favorite places and I'll add them to this list.
