For those of you living in Kingfield and/or readers of the business briefs in SW Journal will have noticed the soon-to-be opening of a remodeled bakery on the corner of 38th and Grand.
After several delays this coming Saturday will be its opening. I write about this not only because my good friends Doug and Jessica Anderson are partners in the business but also because I have had the pleasure of helping to remodel the place. It's a lovely, charming space if I do say so myself. Those of you who had frequented the previous bakery will see a marked difference in both decor and food. Don't look for kohlachis(sp?) or glazed doughnuts. Try the currant scones or semolina rolls or the breads. This will be a work in progress. The owners hope it will evolve in time into a sweet little neighborhood bistro and an adjoining space featuring a wood stove turning out thin crust pizzas and roasted chicken for take out/eat in. If any of you wonder what my contribution to the job was the most obvious examples are the painted French windows and wainscoting and trim indoors and exposed copper on the outside of the building. I apologize for the roughness of the bathroom door but I was stuck with medium sandpaper after the first coat of polyurethane and didn't dare finish the job correctly with fine sandpaper and a third coat under the watchful eyes of my bosses who sometimes wondered how much attention I was going to pay to a particular task. Maybe later I can finish the job. Tim Connolly Downtown West __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.
