"The glamorous little pastry shop in Bronzeville is best known for its spirit-infused creations like bourbon pecan pound cake, chocolate bourbon pound cake, and mini rum butter Bundt cakes. But Eméché is not gimmicky. Owner Janell Richmond is a talented baker who makes everything she sells by hand, including the elaborate, custom-designed cakes she creates for special occasions. The spot is open daily (except Sundays) for breakfast and lunch, and it accommodates up to 50 people for a full buyout." - Audarshia Townsend
