"Eater Award-winning bakery Warda Patisserie serves some of Detroit’s best desserts from its understated cafe on West Alexandrine. Owner Warda Bouguettaya — who won the 2022 James Beard Award for Outstanding Pastry Chef — specializes in stunning tarts, pastries, and bread influenced by her world travels. Look out for options like pear and almond frangipane tarts, quiche, and cream-filled maritozzi. Diners can hang awhile in the bistro-style seating area with a latte or take their pastries to go. Online ordering is available. Must try: Yes, absolutely indulge in Warda’s sweet treats, but don’t sleep on the shop’s savory options, which include a flaky torta made with puff pastry and filled with roasted local oyster mushrooms." - Serena Maria Daniels
