French bakery: cookies, pastries, Basque cheesecake, croissants
"A newer bakery offering twice-baked almond croissants and savory-forward breakfast focaccia topped with bacon and béchamel—items that blend indulgence with inventive breakfast-savory profiles." - Regan Stephens
"Some cookies are classic for a reason. Michette takes the crowd-favorite chocolate chip cookie and spruces it up with buckwheat and fleur de sel (a particularly poignant sea salt) to amp up those nostalgic, comforting flavors." - Celina Colby
"It seems like Basque cheesecake has been everywhere in the past few years, and we’d be remiss not to feature the best example on this list. Fortunately, we found that example at the East Somerville boulangerie, Michette. The crustless cheesecake has a deeply caramelized top and a creamy, custardy center." - Tanya Edwards
"In Somerville Michette, a newly opened French bakeshop, has become a local favorite for items like buckwheat chocolate chunk cookies and Basque cheesecake." - Dobrina Zhekova
"After many, many months of weekend pop-up orders, owner Thomas Ferté has turned the lights on at his highly anticipated French bakery Michette in East Somerville. For the uninitiated, the buckwheat chocolate chunk cookies are a non-negotiable order, but other sure bets include the slices of creamy Basque cheesecake, pistachio chocolate croissants, and a wedge of any tart — sweet or savory — that happens to be on display." - Erika Adams
