Asaro Bakery & Cafe

Asaro Bakery is hidden on an unassumming street just outside of Harvard. The throng of people bustling near the door on a Sunday morning were an indication that I was headed in the right direction.

With a full case of pastries on display, everything looked decadent and delicious. The croissant were flakey and the cakes were fluffy. The cafe smelled of freshly baked challah. Asaro is a place to go for a great cafe experience.

This chococolate chip cookie is perfectly round. Having been baked in a way such that there are no thin edges, it's a chewy cookie that's perfect for someone who loves the brownie in the middle of a pan. It has decadent quantities of dark, bitter chocolate and an underbaked middle. An elevated cookie that's not too sweet and with a salty flare on top.

When I next head out this way, I will definitely need to try the bread!
