The emphasis seems to be on pasticcerias/patisseries/pastry-shops, as opposed to breadmaking.

Prices shown on website are current. Photos on website are exactly how the place looked when I visited yesterday. Always a line.

If you are very in Chicago and want some great bakery goods... DINKEL's on Lincoln Ave is the BEST!

There were two (2) local bakeries back in my hometown- Spiesmann's and Ketterer's....I think both are still in operation today, at least they were 8 years ago when we last visited- their Danish coffee cakes were to die for....in fact I brought some back with me on the plane. There is nothing like them in Big D- I know, I have searched high and low. And hard rolls- real hard rolls....oh, the memories, cause there is nothing here that comes close to a real HARD roll here in Big D either!
