Baked goods!

[in-parentheses.livejournal.com]

Am I missing something, or is there no good bakery anywhere in Davis, Porter, Harvard, or Central? I don't mean a coffee shop that has good scones; there are tons of those. I mean a place with a big display case full of cookies, rugelach, and other pastries where I can buy a mixed box. The only one I know of is La Contessa in Davis, and (sorry but...) I don't think it's very good. I want chocolate and jam and flaky buttery pastry and I don't want to have to go to Brookline or the North End to get it, darn it! Help?

Not exactly walking distance from Davis, though...

Nope, but the 77 bus stops right in front of it.

Anyway, I was going to recommend Quebrada. And I hear that someplace wonderful just opened at Boston & Winthrop St. (Medford, I guess?), but I know nothing more.

It's on Medford Hillside, which is also a bit of a trek from Davis, but the 94 and 96 stop just across the street. Haven't tried it yet, but I keep hearing good things.
