Restaurant RecapThe decor at Foundation Social Eatery is giving me open shelving envy! LOVE it! Rebar is used in the shelving and throughout the restaurant.
I love my little town, Roswell, GA, mostly for the great restaurants. One of the newest to hit the block is Foundation Social Eateryand I am SO happy (more…)
UncategorizedMae’s Bakery Birthday cake. Happy first birthday
Dieting sucks lets face it, but if it must be done then it must be done. I’m on a low carb diet now but diets be damned because it’s the 1st anniversary celebration for Mae’s Bakery (2772 Lenox Road, Suite B4, Atlanta, GA).
Beth Castro fulfilled her lifelong dream of owning her own bakery with the opening of Mae’s Bakery last year. Self taught, Beth’s passion for delicious treats shows in the high quality of her work. The bakery is named after Beth’s daughter.Dessert tableYes sugar cookie, I will do as you sayOne of my favorite desserts, creampuffs have a light, crispy shell and a rich creamy vanilla fillingEclairs, perfectly shiny with chocolate glazeCupcakes and Layer cake and cake pops. Macarons by Xanna Kidd of XK Macarons. Xanna is also a barista at Mae’s. The beautifully colored French Macarons are a meringue cookie make with almond flour. They are so deliciously delicate; the outer shell cracks between your teeth and the lightly chewy inside melts in your mouth.
Counter Culture Coffee was in the house for a very informative discussion of all things coffee.
Counter Culture Chemex Coffee. The by-the-cup, certified organic, Counter Culture coffees at Mae’s Bakery change seasonallyWe had a wonderful tasting of Counter Culture Coffees. The folks at Counter Culture have an encyclopedic knowledge of everything coffee that they pass on the the shop owners that carry their brand.
Most items on Mae’s menu (except croissants) can be made gluten free, just ask. I hear their whoopie pies are to DIE for. I’ll return to Mae’s soon to give a report on that.
