Mmm, these were SO good! This was my first time at Larsen’s Danish Bakery and I was like a kid in a candy store. My favorites were the French culler and the cheese and green onion biscuit.

Special breakfast sandwich – Devil’s Teeth Baking Company

Special breakfast sandwich - Devil's Teeth Baking Company
Buttermilk biscuit, 2 scrambled eggs, lemon garlic aioli, pepper jack cheese, avocado, bacon. $6.75
Devil’s Teeth Baking Company, San Francisco CA

I love a place where you can relax and have a long conversation with friends without being bothered by work. When the register lady is doing that with the customer in front of you, not so much. Crappy, loud, annoying service always makes your food taste bad.

Matcha cruffin - Mr. Holmes Bakehouse
Yes, I admit it! I waited in that stupid cruffin line for over an hour to try one of these things, and I don’t even like matcha (totally got screwed on the rotating flavors). But I’m also going to admit that these were AMAZING! Each person is only allowed 2 cruffins and you’ll definitely eat both and want another – they’re SO delicious, NOMS!

Macarons – Bakery Lorraine

Macarons - Bakery Lorraine
Margarita and salted caramel. $2.25
Bakery Lorraine, San Antonio TX

The macarons were pretty, but inconsistently baked. The filling of the margarita macaron was too sugary sweet and you could feel the granulated sugar. The filling of the salted caramel tasted and felt like plain old whipped butter. Gross! The girl serving the pastries was also rude. This place failed all around and had absolutely no finesse with their food!

Chicken kale caesar salad – Boudin Bakery and Cafe

Chicken kale caesar salad - Boudin Bakery and Cafe
Chiffonade Tuscan kale and romaine lettuce, all natural diced chicken, grated Parmesan cheese, creamy Caesar dressing with sourdough garlic crisps. $8.59
Boudin Bakery and Cafe, San Francisco CA

My favorite part of the salads at Boudin are the sourdough garlic crisps – kinda fitting. 🙂 The addition of kale to this caesar was a nice change of pace.
