They say man does not live by bread alone, but in Columbus, he darned near could. The latest addition to the city’s rising bread scene elevates a slice of one of life’s simplest pleasures to lofty heights, adding flora to its must-try experience. Culinary curators at Experience Columbus have assembled this list of 11 great breads, every one of which is wellworth traveling to try. Flowers & Bread just opened in March and is quietly taking the city by storm. This Instagram-worthy collaboration of Tricia Wheeler, Sarah Lagrotteria and famed bread baker Sarah Black celebrates the simple things for which it’s named. Born out of a desire for a bread worthy of their magnificent hand-churned butter (made from local Snowville Cream), Flowers & Bread has a snug eat-in café, and also offers beautiful take-away breads and bouquets. Showy flower arranging and baking studios let guests watch the magic happen, and provide classes so travelers can take home a new skill along with that boule or baguette. |
