I was wandering around Waterbury one summer Saturday, looking for a place to sit with my Latin books, when I discovered this wonderful little bakery. The owner was so kind. After I bought a blueberry corn muffin and a tonic water, he made a fresh pot of coffee and offered me a cup on the house. He set me up at a shaded table in a tiny garden and told me to stay as long as I wanted. He was making deliveries, but he never pressured me to leave; in fact, I was still sipping my water and reading my Latin when it was time for him to close up shop at noon. He said how glad he was to see me enjoying his little garden spot, and that I should stay for as long as I wanted. Since he was closing shop, this was not a ploy to get me to buy more food --- he was genuinely kind. I gave this shop five stars even though I sampled such a limited portion of their baked goods. My muffin was very good, but the hospitality was excellent! And my Latin is improving. Optimus! read more
