Primo Pastries

I am a pastry maniac. Those delicious combinations of butter, flour and salt fall somewhere very near fly fishing, wine and my fiancee on my list of importance's. At bridge Street we recently signed on a baker. Needless to say, I am in serious trouble. I tried one of these pesto croissants today and almost fell over with delight. Flakey, buttery, just salty enough with just a hint of lemon.......Are you hungry yet? Come check out our delicious morning snacks. Open at 9am.
Just a couple of snaps to whet the palate. More delicious things on the way.
