Baker and Banker Bakery

San Francisco, CA

On our way to see Transformers in IMAX 3D during the holiday weekend, we stopped by Baker and Banker Bakery to get some breakfast goodies. It's a small, new, local bakery that has already garnered rave reviews. We ordered two items and a salted caramel latte (which wasn't that great).

Almond Brioche

Our first breakfast pastry was a thick slice of brioche that tasted like an almond croissant in bread form. Every inch of bread tasted like it has been soaked in a sugary almond goodness and we both enjoyed it very much.

Sticky Bun

The second item was a gargantuan chocolate, pecan sticky bun. It wasn't overly sweet, but because of the chocolate, it was a very rich treat. It took us forever to finish, because even though you can't tell in the picture, the bun was massive.  Both things we got from the bakery were very enjoyable but the bakery/restaurant is kind of out of the way. But if you're in the area, its definitely worth a visit.
