Recess - the new coffee house/bakery

 



Located on Black Mountain Ave. just down hill of the railroad tracks, and in the same block as Louise's Kitchen.


Outdoor seating was available, though it was a bit too cool for my comfort.



Owners, Lexi and Harrison were warm greeters. The coffee was very good, though people asked me later where it was from. I liked seeing some loaves of bread on the shelf behind them. 

The croissants and focaccia bread quarter-loaves were over to the right in a small eye level case, so you have to go behind the standing sign (don't even know what it said) to go see the small case of edibles.

I had an almond croissant at $6.50 which was pretty tasty though there were also plain and chocolate croissants. My second choice would have been the cinnamon roll-focaccia bread at even higher price.

 With the difficulty parking nearby, and the small baked selection at high prices, I may only go here occasionally!

It was certainly a morning when lots of the 20 year old crowd came out. I wonder if there was spring break that week...though a few of the older generation were also in evidence! 

Sorry to not get a shot of the indoor seating, which was adequate for a short time.

Today is:

 Epilepsy Awareness Day (also called Purple Day), 

National Spinach Day


Today's quote:

It is better to prevent crimes than to punish them.
