Bouncer, Carlos Bakery?

[Shibby]

We are going to New York the beginning of January (6 days this time) and were wanting to take a trip to Carlos Bakery. Is there good and bad times to go? Is worth buying some baked goods while there?

[blm]

Try and make it to Lombardi's pizza on Spring St. You won't be disappointed.

[Shibby]

Went there last time. I'm not a pizza guy and I liked it.

[Bouncer]

weekdays early in the day (before lunch 11am) or afternoon (2-4pm), line should only be around 15 minutes.

if you go on the weekends or weekdays around lunch time you will be in a line for an hour.

if you want my opinion, its a tourist trap.

if you want a real Italian bakery where real Italians go you want doms bakery. best breads you ever had in your life.

of course you want fruity cakes and fake ass pastries like a faggot tourist so go to Carlos... :disagree:

[Shibby]

Doms have cakes and stuff to? I watch Cake Boss with my son so it would be fun to take him to the place he see's on TV. We could go see Carlos and buy from Doms.

[Bouncer]

this is what a real bakery looks like.

doms is more about italian breads.

its not a desert place.

go to both, trust me, you never had bread like this.

Magda will be able to judge it well. She loves breads and she can easily compare to US breads to Poland breads. Obviously the Polish breads are way better.

poland has nothing on Italian Bread makers. and thats what we have at doms and a few other places in jersey and NYC. so in that sense, Polish bread is not better.

if you are talking about the average garbage in a grocery store, then i agree.

Magda can only judge polish bread. she knows not about the fine art of italian bread. :weights:

[Shibby]

Yes I mean the basic commercial bakery/breads.

[Bouncer]

those places should be burnt to the ground.

[mofo]

we have this little armenian bakery here near my house and they make some of the best pastries i've ever had. we also have a small diner chain owned and operated by a family of italian/greeks and they have some amazing desserts as well.

[decadecadeca]

I love all the mean old yankee dagos that come down here to retire and open up little mom and pop joints.

Only damn thing Italians know how to do right is cook....God bless 'em.

[Timma]

Inlaws went to a place in little italy called Angelos for dinner the other night. Said it was amazing. Went to a pastry shop after down the street and said it was meh. I don't remember the name.

[Bouncer]

Little Italy in brooklyn or little Italy on manhattan that is just for tourist and doesn't really exist anymore?
