Food People: June 2008 Archives

Red Hen BaguetteOwners Rose and Bob Piccheitti of Red Hen live up to their credo "to bake great bread". Tastybeat considers Red Hen a special gem. Their bread is truly a step above the rest. Red Hen uses only the finest ingredients and even makes their own starters! And each and every single tart, muffin, and loaf of bread at Red Hen is lovingly made by hand. Once you try Red Hen, it's hard to eat bread from anywhere else.

Red Hen CroissantRed Hen makes two dozen varieties of bread daily, from a classic baguette (Tastybeat's favorite) to the more creative types including sourdough, herb, and ciabatta. Tastybeat also recommends their flaky, buttery croissants, plain or oozing with chocolate. Truly delicious! And Red Hen offers outstanding deli sandwiches all day.

Happy Eating,

Tastybeat
