Badolina Bakery & Cafe

Badolina Bakery in Rice Village needs to be at the top of the weekend to-do list for grab-and-go Israeli pastries. This retail store-esque bakery has an oak tree-shaded patio, and it's the perfect place to sit with a warm almond raspberry croissant or a slice of focaccia topped with sweet cherry tomatoes and caramelized onions. Badolina also has fresh sourdough baguettes, and the dulce de leche-filled brioche is a perfect snack while you sift through the racks of the latest Luminary dress. (Try not to get any on the clothes).
