Does anyone know a place in Atlanta or Nashville...

...where you can get a reasonably authentic baguette? There are simple things about Paris that I wish weren't on the other side of the world. There are so many things that I wish weren't so far away. |

Do you mean bread? We like the Atlanta Bread Company when we go - and Harry's Market has some divine bread - but we live an hour or so away from Atlanta. I have a bread oven and make my own bread. For baguette's, pizza, hot rolls and stuff I just make the dough in it, then finish with the oven. Best book ever - Bread Machine Magic. Anyway, I don't exactly know what else you could mean. I miss Europe with a bakery every few doors down. I had one half a block from my apartment. I SO miss it. |

Well, a sandwich... A Ham and cheese sandwich on baguette... A typical thing that is available on any street corner in France. I guess I could walk into Atlanta Bread Company and ask them to make this, but its not a standard offering of theirs. I certainly could make it myself, but you underestimate how much of a bachelor I am. :) Yeah, its pretty damn bad when you balk at the idea of making a Sandwich. U I tried Panera... They got close but not precisely right. They had the right bread, but they didn't understand how to make the sandwich. They cut it into cubes, kept half (which I presume they'll throw out), and packed all the ingredients into the other half. U The Atlanta Bread Company's idea of a baugette leaves something to be desired. Panera was closer. |
