Gluten free? Not a chance.

And so the first weekend in our new city draws to a blustery and blue skied end. Most of it was taken up with the continued hunt for a place to live, but we managed to sample some of the best things the city has to offer. Bakeries. Really good ones.
1. The Mill
Beautiful clean space with fresh bread and good coffee. I had a Asian inspired sesame brioche and Ollie had sourdough toast with homemade nutella.
Delicious rolls filled with salami, gherkins and mustard as well a whole cabinet of sweet treats I could not possibly have chosen from!
The most incredibly light and buttery pastry made for a delicious pain au chocolat with raspberries. I can’t wait to go back for the toasted sandwiches they make.
Tonight? A very green spring minestrone soup for dinner. Maybe with some fresh bread…
I bought the Tartine book about two years ago and still haven’t managed to organise myself enough to get a starter sorted and try the recipes out. So glad you had a good weekend trying out some great sounding places x
Everything looked so good, plus they have a restaurant too. You will just have to come and visit so we can go…
