UWS bakery for fresh bread

Fairway has fresh french bread. Im not a bread expert so cant comment on the quality. Can say that it is hot

Soutine - ask them when it comes out of the oven. 70th & Columbus. Or Levain.

>hubby wants good, fresh, hot bread right out of the oven. where can we go?

This has significantly deeper meaning than visiting Fairway, Soutine or Levain.

Definitely Soutine.

What a good wife
If I asked the wife for the same I'd get 20 minutes on how I need more carbs like I need a hole in the head.
Then she would send me to H&H for some fresh bagels.
When I got back and announced that they closed their shop she would say, "I know, how did you enjoy the exercise"?

falcogold...that was funny..

Silver Moon.

I second Silver Moon. You could also ask any of the bakeries we've listed to sell you dough, so that you can bake it at home and have that nice smell in your own place.

What a great idea front_porch!

update: Soutine bakes in the morning, usually around 5am so bread may not be warm by 8am (weekdays) or 9am (weekends). The woman did say that the "night baker" sometimes sells to customers who stop by after hours (huh ?!). they do bake fresh challah throughout the day on Fridays.

Haven't checked with Levain yet.

Silver Moon is up north, right (100's)?

good idea front porch. we've toyed with the idea of baking at home, but i hate cleaning the mixer. purchasing dough would solve that, but i'm certain it wouldn't be as good.

falco - funny. H&H is the example hubby gave for how he wants his bread. I was also informed that it should not be whole grain. *shrug*

You could always get a bread machine--easy as pie!

Whole foods has semi-baked bread in the freezer, decent quality, fresh taste & hot from your oven.

maybe he prefers something else

forget the bread and go to Levain Bakery on west 74th for the best cookies on the planet.
