    Question Bakeries

    I didn't immediately see a previous thread on this. I know that this is a broad question, but which are some of the best bakeries in Philadelphia proper? Addresses or intersections would be appreciated.

    Are you looking for bread or pastries?

    If pastries I really really like Termini. They are in the basement of Comcast called The Market

    Bread = Cacia's between 15th and 16th on Ritner

    Pasteries = Potito's between 16th and 17th. (Yes, they are open again)

    Speaking of bakeries, does anyone know why there was a huge line at Sarcone's this morning? Is there some Sarcone Christmas tradition I'm unaware of?

    Thanks so much. I'm mostly looking for pastries, but either is fine.

    I went to Termini's on 8th and picked up an apple pie, a couple of small cheesecakes, and a few cannolis. It cost $50. A bit pricey, but still not as much as I thought it would be.
