We enjoyed a fun and tasty dessert break at Alina's. There are so many desserts to choose from!…read more The decorating is truly wonderful from beautiful flower and butterfly graves cake pops to adorable character cakes such as cookie monster, Elmo and Mario. For today's outing, we tried the mousse cake and the chocolate covered cheesecake. And, just to break a bit from all that chocolate (ok there's no such things as too much chocolate, I know...) we added in the tiramisu. All were beautiful to look at and beautiful to eat. There are several counter seats and then two tables for two so not too much seating but you'll end up taking other delights home as well (we added on an almond croissant). The service was super helpful. There is parking in front and in back. Just be careful if you need a handicapped space or a ramp for mobility. The space is very inconveniently located and the ramp to the sidewalk is in really bad shape. Other than that, Alina's was a very nice stop on a weekday afternoon.

I did the sourdough baking class. That was a wonderful,…read moreenlightening experience. The class size was about 8-10 of us, a nice mix of people like me who were new to the sourdough adventure, and some more experienced. The class was $200. The different stages of starter development, proofing, fermentation, shaping and baking were demonstrated. At the end, you get a container of starter and a loaf to take home. For a new sourdough baker, I wish there was more hands on so you feel the textures of the dough.

There are sandwiches, sweet treats, sourdough bread varieties, focaccia, cookies, coffee and more. The place is inviting and casual with air of class and attention to detail. Very welcoming. There is seating avaible to enjoy your coffee or cornetto. The products are all thoughtfully displayed and the service was genuinely friendly and upbeat. The cornetto with him and cheese was a simple and delicious sandwich. The bomboloni (1 pistachio and 1 lemon) were light and decadent at the same time, with a creamy custard like filling with subtle tastes of lemon and pistachio. I will be coming back for these. The garlic sourdough was filled with whole garlic gloves baked in with a nice chewy outside crust and soft inside. The country sourdough was equally amazing. Both great for dipping, sandwiches, toast, or simply spreading with a good quality butter or jam. There are no preservatives or artificial ingredients and all is made by hand. Right off the Post Rd in Westport with a small parking lot shared with other businesses. I highly recommend and will be a regular!

To add to it, they are completely nut-free as well! And they offer vegan options, too.

All of the cupcakes we tried were absolutely delish! From the lemon raspberry to the key lime - all really terrific. I wouldn't hesitate to order for a birthday party here if we lived in the area!

If you're on the hunt for a traditional French bakery with authentic French and European pastries, desserts, and breads, you will happily walk out of here with a bag of wonderful goodies. When you walk in, you'll come across a tempting display case piled high with their baked goods. I saw platters of croissants of every description! Plain, Chocolate, Choc/Raspberry, Almond, Almond/Choc, Croissant Donuts and Croissant donut holes. But wait there's more! Brioches, chocolate Plies, Pinwheels, fruit turnovers, Cinnamon Rolls, Coffee Cakes, Danishes, Beignets, Scones, Fruit Tarts, Palmiers. The list goes on and on and I haven't even gotten to their cookies, macarons, baguettes, rolls, challah, cakes, quiches, and sandwiches. Seriously, you can have three meals a day here for a month and never duplicate anything. When I walked in, the dining room was pretty busy with customers enjoying a late lunch. The ordering line for baked goods was around five deep, which gave me plenty of time to check out the goods. I ended up with a nice assortment of a chocolate croissant, a chocolate Plie, a fruit turnover, donuts, and a fruit pie. We had some of the goodies last night and a bit more for breakfast today. The chocolate plié was amazing, and honestly, everything we've tried so far has been great. Easy FIVE STARS, n'est-ce pas?

The person (Maggie) got back to me via phone and was very helpful but had to follow up with th owner on a couple of questions on the design and toppers, but was certain that the bakery can follow through. A week went by, nothing. I called and left a message for her, nothing. I did the same the following week, nothing. I even emailed her again, nothing. I wasted 2 weeks waiting on them to get back to me as I did not want to commit to other bakeries out of respect for them. But now I will. What a complete waste of time.

Ever since the westport location opened, the Blackrock location has gone down in service and quality.

There was a woman who disagreed with that and despite her being extremely rude all the staff handled it with grace but also didn't let her just get her way because she was causing a scene.

There's plenty of seating inside and even though it was a busy afternoon I was able to snag a small table that I could eat and work at. If I'm in this area again I will gladly stop here for a bit!

The chai tea was incredible. It is not that fake syrup thing other bigger companies use. I also got a croissant filled with spinach and cheese.

I was brought a ham and egg sandwich, which I cannot eat and had to send back. The fruit was ripe and so delicious. My latte was missing the vanilla. They handled the sandwich mixup with grace and were very apologetic. Looking forward to returning and getting more desserts.

Love the cafe's pink Parisian aesthetic, and everything in the dessert case looked so good that it was hard to choose! The framboise was my favorite - so fruity and fresh! The nebula and galette were great too. The only things we weren't crazy about were our drinks. The hot chocolate was very bitter, which I guess I should've expected, but I couldn't even get through half of it no matter how much milk I put in. My mom also felt her tea was extremely weak. The girls were friendly at the counter, and I would definitely consider stopping in for a dessert again.
