Ancient Egyptian philosopher Amenemope famously said, "Better is bread with a happy heart than wealth with vexation or a bubble bath with a mall Santa." Celebrate life's greatest staple food in all its forms with today’s Groupon: for $7, you get $15 worth of soups, sandwiches, and baked goods at Bon Appetit French Bakery and Cafe in Fort Walton Beach.

The oven-minders of Bon Appetit French Bakery and Cafe mix the flour, roll the dough, and bake the flaky croissants and crusty breads that anchor a menu of fresh soups, sandwiches, and divine pastries. Supported by a yellow sponge-cake base, a slice of almond rum cake arrives infused with rum, iced with chocolate butter cream, and topped with crushed almonds and shaved chocolate ($2.25). A croissant’s soft, flaky crust can house sumptuous fillings such as chocolate or ham and cheese ($2.75). At lunch, build a sandwich atop a french roll, croissant, or other fresh-baked bread, layering your leavened foundation with specialty meats and cheeses or signature chicken salad ($5.95). Or split the sandwich as easily as if it were a Hollywood couple and pair it with a cup of tomato florentine, chicken noodle, or other soup-of-the-day selection ($5.95).
