"This is the O.G. (for "original gluten" — sorry!) — the store that started it all and now has outposts at the Oxbow Public Market and Napa — and it's still going strong after nine decades: the attention to detail is stunning, the sourdough is leavened using a starter sourced from wine grapes, the pastries will weaken your knees, and the cookies instill a sense of childlike glee; that's been my experience." - Brian Freedman
