Hope I didn't offend the fine folks over at Some Crust Bakery with yesterday's post. I was speaking strictly bread, and although Some Crust's challah and jalepeno cheese bread are very good, they're not quite the artisan breads that Full of Life used to make, or that the new Le Pain Quotidien will offer when it goes into Village West.
That said, Some Crust's pastries, cookies, scones, cakes and assorted other desserts are very fine. They're a little bigger and heavier than the you might find in a patisserie and have a little more of an Americana feeling. It's still a nice place to go into to grab a cup of coffee and a sweet or to order a special occasion cake.
Some Crust makes it's goodies on-site from scratch and that does make a world of difference. For a good write up with photos, check out A Passion for Food's entry from April 8th.
Our only complaint about Some Crust is the service is very spotty and is downright bad on occasion. The staff is very friendly but too often slow, and the wait can be long, especially on weekend mornings. But, if you have the time to spare, the treats are worth the five or ten minutes it takes to get your order.
