Food Scene

Yummy modern bakery with good teas and coffee. Their pastries are works of art. Serves quiches, sandwiches and salads for lunch. Cult favorite is their Rebel Within bacon and cheese muffin with a soft boiled egg inside. The runny yolk when you cut open the muffin is total food porn.

One of the best bakeries in SF. The breads are so good as are their pastries and sandwiches. Have their own cook book. Once caveat...lines but moves ok.
