I stopped by Commune for evening breakfast takeout. At the counter, I ordered the Chorizo Bowl ($12 plus tax) and a Raspberry Pistachio Chocolate Croissant ($7.49 plus tax). My order was all set to go in 10 minutes. The Chorizo Bowl was a good portion of scrambled eggs, ground chorizo, tater tots, pinto beans, guacamole, cilantro, & salsa roja on the side. The Raspberry Pistachio Chocolate Croissant was thick, flaky & buttery topped with crushed pistachios & powdered sugar and filled with sweet raspberry preserves & pistachio paste and another layer with chocolate. Their bakery partner, Le Petit Four Bakery makes great French pastries and I have spent close $100 on recent visits there.
I enjoyed the breakfast bowl and sweet croissant with my hot black coffee is what I needed to start my evening. I will stop back again to try one of the burrito bowls and some gelato. read more
