The Best Bakeries in Minneapolis and St. Paul | Eater Twin Cities
"Asa Diebolt got his start selling his trademark bagels and bialys at farmers markets throughout the metro. (Bialys are not bagels, though they may seem similar — they’re only baked, not boiled, and have a depressed center filled with sweet roasted onions.) Now in a brick-and-mortar space on 34th Avenue, Asa’s Bakery is serving both old favorites and new ones, like smoked whitefish sandwiches and vegan smoked cream cheeses. There’s fresh bread, too: Stop by Thursday through Sunday to grab a loaf of sourdough, cheddar scallion, or deli pumpernickel, and be warned that Asa’s sells out early. Note that face masks are required, and available free of charge if you don’t have one handy." - Stacy Brooks
