May 4, 2016 Cinco de Mayo at Kane’s Donuts

Cinco de Mayo is tomorrow and for this preg-o food blogger, I have to celebrate it sober! I popped into Kane’s Donuts in the Financial District on Tuesday to preview their special margarita donut. Tomorrow is the only day that you can get this specialty donut, so hurry in, they’ll sell out quickly. The shop is […]

December 26, 2015 Petticoat Row Bakery

On a day trip to Nantucket this fall, we spent the afternoon walking around the island. One stop was the Petticoat Row bakery, a cute little shop just off the beaten path. With the summer season coming to a close, their cases were a bit more sparse than usual, but we still found some delicious […]

December 22, 2015 Mariposa Bakery

After lunch at the nearby Naco Taco, we decided to stop into Mariposa bakery. The chop is super cute with exposed brick walls and some great lighting from the large windows in the front. There are a bunch of tables inside, where you can enjoy your treats if you don’t have the willpower to make […]

December 17, 2015 Clear Flour Bread

Long story short, my car got a flat tire and I had to wait 2 hours to get it fixed. Instead of sitting in the Sullivan Tire waiting area watching horrible daytime tv, I decided to take a walk down to Clear Flour Bread. Located at the edge of a residential neighborhood, this tiny shop […]

December 2, 2015 Praline

My friend Leah spoils me. When we got together recently, she brought me some sweet treats from Praline. This treat is a religieuse a la vanille and it was truly a religious experience. It was light and fluffy, sweet but not too sweet, crisp and yet so smooth. While I generally don’t get chocolate desserts, […]

November 30, 2015 A&J King Artisan Bakers

Before heading to lunch at Turner’s Seafood, I walked over to A&J King Artisan Bakers. The bakery, that opened in 2006, is owned by Andy and Jackie King. I followed my nose – you could smell that delicious bread all the way down the street! There were so many delicious things to choose from it […]

November 24, 2015 Little Cupcake Bakeshop

Little Cupcake Bakeshop was founded in 2005 in Brooklyn. They have expanded to two locations, one in Brooklyn and one in Nolita. We visited Nolita and loved the feel of the bakery (it just feels like a real bakery). They had an amazing assortment of cupcakes, it was hard not to buy one of everything! We got […]

October 24, 2015 Cottage Street Bakery

Tucked away and nestled behind some cute shops, Cottage Street Bakery serves up some delicious baked goods. There is an adorable courtyard to sit and relax, enjoy your treats – away from the hustle and bustle of the main street. We arrive a little after lunch time, so they are out of a bunch of […]

October 5, 2015 Maison Villatte

Maison Villatte is one of those places where you walk into it thinking you’re going to get a croissant and walk out with a dozen things and you don’t know how you just spent $75. Everything just looks so darn delicious and don’t even get me started on the smell! The small cafe seats about […]

September 29, 2015 Sugar Sweet Sunshine

Probably one of my favorite cupcake shops in New York. I always try and stop here to grab a cupcake or six. The shop is tiny with only a few tables – but it’s cozy, decorate in 60’s and 70’s decor. The shop opened in 2003 by two friends, Peggy and Debbie. The pistachio is […]
