"Israeli-born pastry chefTzurit Oropened her first bakery in Brookline in 2008. Ten years later,Tatte Bakeryhas eight locations in Boston proper, plus another four in Cambridge, which means Or’s creations are available in almost every neighborhood (no complaints here). The all-day menu features a slew of sandwiches and salads, plus heartier items such as the garden vegetable bowl served with roasted-pepper cashew spread and housemade challah and the avocado and zucchini tartine. We recommend topping just about anything with a poached egg, local and free-range of course." - ByMelissa Malamut
