As far as I'm concerned, it's officially soup season when the first frosts and first snowflakes hit. And what goes best with soup? Bread. What also pairs well with a steaming bowl of fresh pasta? Bread. What is delicious when slathered with butter or dipped in olive oil? I'm sure you know: bread.
And so, what better time for a new Italian bakery to set up shop in Nyack? The bakery is called Brooklyn Bread & Sweets (79 South Broadway). Their front window is piled high with beautiful loaves in all shapes and sizes. When I stopped in on a rainy morning this week, I was greeted with a smile, a sample of biscotti, and some Sinatra in the background.
