Café Breads

These breads are scratch-made in each of our 3 café gathering places everyday using locally milled flours.

chibatta
Ciabatta (che-batta): A wonderful bread with big holes and a deep, earthy flavor. Cut horizontally, drizzle with olive oil, salt and pepper and grill briefly to caramelize the crust.
parisian
Parisien: Simply water, salt and yeast baked fresh daily in our stone oven.
petitepain
Petit Pain “Small bread”: A nice, crusty roll made with the same dough as our Parisien.
epi
Epi (ep-eee): Scored with a scissors prior to loading into the oven, this loaf is great for sharing. Thought to resemble a stalk of wheat.

Craft Breads
These breads are available in our cafes as well as our partner grocery stores.

Miller’s 5 Grain: Inspired by the “health breads” of Germany. Hearty, crunchy multigrain bread. Slightly sour with organic whole wheat and rye flours studded with organic grains and sunflower seeds.

St. Louis Italian: A nod to our baker brothers “on the hill,” this loaf is made with a blend of semolina flour and extra virgin olive oil that produces a nice, soft crumb.
