Originally designed with Venice, Italy as its inspiration this unconventional seaside neighborhood thrives on a unique collision of trendiness and counter-culture street cred. From posh boutiques to quaint canals, from street performers to wayward artists - Venice continues to prefer the spectacle to the expected.
The newest bakery/cafe from the founders of Gjelina makes the list for its all around good taste in both style and sustenance. An enormous kitchen and bakery dominate the skylit space and for good reason... the glass cases are chock-full of pastries, proteins, and a myriad of other breakfast and lunch plates. It might take a few minutes longer than you're used to... but it's worth the wait. For your virgin introduction: Merguez Bialy... all... the... way.
