In the land of skinny no carb diets, get ready for the complete opposite. Two croissant loving guys came together and came up with a wrench in the Los Angeles plan. A good French bakery. B1 Breadshop (2301 East 7th St., Downtown, 310.699.9698) is bringing boulangerie-style baked goods to both sides of the 405.
With locations downtown and on Abbot Kinney, the organic bakery serves baguettes and brioches, sweets like jesuites, palmeras and croissants in flavors like spinach & feta and Valrhona chocolate, all baked fresh daily.
Grab a spot at the high-top table in the minimalist, white-on-white spot and forget the diet. For lunch, there’s a selection of organic salads and sandwiches (Caprese, roast turkey with Brie).
