It seems I can’t go too long without checking in with my favorite bakery- Bakey!

In addition to coming up with new flavors of their AMAZING babka all the time and allowing fans to get behind-the-scenes access through their popular baking workshops, Bakey continues to engage new fans in new neighborhoods.

Most recently, the Israeli and Danish-influenced bakery opened in Kendall Square at 238 Main Street in Cambridge. And while this is one of the most restaurant-rich regions around, I am confident that the bakery will be able to establish itself and become a go-to for busy tech workers and fans of delicious baked goods, sandwiches, and other treats. 

As it offers both table service and a busy to-go counter, the newest Bakey is as much of a great stop as its predecessors for anything from a quick and satisfying snack to a full meal to boxes of breads and sandwiches to bring back to the office (where you will surely garner hero status!).

And if you are looking for a fun team-bonding or social event, a class at Bakey’s is always fun and delicious! Be sure to join me on May 7 for a birthday babka baking class or learn how to make their famed challah on April 2.

Whether you live or work in Boston, Brookline, Newton, Cambridge, now you can enjoy the best baked goods around. And if you don’t live or work in any of these places, Bakey’s is worth the trip from anywhere!

Speaking of Bakey, I must mention that the wonderful Jewish baker who used to have their spot in Newton Centre – Galit Grutman – is making hamantaschen for Purim that can be ordered now and picked up at Bill’s Pizza March 9 and 10. Just go to www.galitstreats.com and get your boxes of chocolate nougat, chocolate cookie, or Cinnabon hamantaschen and see why that block of Beacon Street is a baked-good fan’s dream!
