An old unpublished 210SA bar review

The Cakery Bakery

While this isn't bar related, it is about a downtown bakery/cafe: The Cakery Bakery. Delicious. I had one of the specials for the day, the Banh Mi, a Vietnamese sandwich of marinated beef, spicy mayo, cucumber, cilantro and carrot salad all wrapped up in a hoagie-type bread (this was thinner and lighter than a hoagie, though). Light and refreshing, this sandwich tasted Vietnamese -- owner Doreen Howarth (who also co-owns the Milam Diner with her husband) got it spot on. I love the intriguing daily specials like the Banh Mi and the Mac & Cheese Panini, a regular on the menu, is really good, too. The ingredients are fresh: the Green Goddess dressing uses green onion and other herbs and tasted like it had been made that morning (and it probably had).

Get down there and give them your business. It's a unique, delicious and downright friendly.
