Flour

Flour continues to be one of our favorite bakeries in Boston.  We were regulars at the South End location on Washington Street but because of the crowds, we started coming over to the second location at Fort Point Channel.  

The line here was long also.  The Artwalk and Volvo Ocean Race events were taking place and this was one of the few eateries open on Sunday.

After close to 30 minutes in line, John brought out the coffee, raspberry soda and desserts. It's always nice to have dessert first.   

He normally orders the Pain au Raisin but they were sold out.  So we were left with our old standbys - the chocolate chip cookie is made with Scharffenberger chocolate  (there are no chips but rather chunks of melted chocolate) and the marvelous sour cream coffee cake with the perfect crumb.   

Then after another 15 minutes, we got our sandwiches.  John is holding the egg & bacon sandwich with homemade aioli, tomato and arugula.  In the basket is the fabulous BLT.  What makes the sandwiches so unique is that Flour uses their own bread.
