From the outside, it is hard to even tell that this little bakery is ever open, but for those who are in the know, it’s a great find! I worked around the corner from the shop and found myself visiting it almost every other day. Apparently, Work of Art used to have a few tables set up for dining in, but now it is only carryout.

Besides baking beautiful and tasty pastries, Work of Art also sells lunch daily. There is always a satisfying soup of the day and fresh salads with home made dressings. But my lunch time favorite was always a warm sandwich. You can choose from several freshly made breads and get sliced hot meat with all the fixings! They put it through a little toaster first to get everything nice and melty.

The shop is owned by a very nice woman who could always tell that my stomach was in need of a free chocolate truffle sample! YUM!
