At Lakeside Bakery and Café, freshly baked, all-natural breads open minds and mouths to the potent possibilities of the most pyramid- fortifying of food groups. Simple, wholesome ingredients restore bread to its unbleached, unrefined glory; loaves emerge from their incubators with hard, crispy shells and soft fluffy interiors, much like Bruce Willis. A spacious, bright café features dazzling geometric light fixtures and soaring windows draped with red and marigold curtains, providing inviting environs for dough dabblers to peruse the menu for a yeasty feast. For breakfast, pay homage to the gluten gods with French toast, cinnamon-apple bread baked golden brown and dusted with icing sugar ($5.49). Lunch goers, meanwhile, can sample a variety of soups, salads, and sandwiches such as the Philly beef on ciabatta bread ($7.25) or the Monte Cristo, egg-dipped bread with Black Forest ham and smoked turkey ($7.65).

Cordoned by a bountiful bakery and deli, a trip to Lakeside Bakery and Café can easily blossom into a bountiful foray past rows of more than 35 flavours of breads, cakes, tortes, pastries, and more. One can also linger at the deli counter to hunt a variety of gourmet meats and cheeses, pulverizing hunger pangs and tactfully preserving the modesty of bare-bread slices.
