Brioche in the NW

[Schielke]

So where could a fella get some good brioche 'round these here NorthWest parts?

Ken's Artisan Bakery.

Oh, wait, Northwest = Seattle for anyone up north, right?

Original Bakery, 4 or 5 blocks southeast of the Fauntleroy ferry dock in West Seattle.

I gotta qualify that to say they used to have exceptional brioche; it's been a long time since I've noshed there, though, so things could have changed. I'm hoping to go tomorrow morning to taste again and will report back.

Cafe Besalu's brioche looked great, and everything I've tasted there has been good. I think Essential Baking makes brioche too.

Hey, I made a point of saying the NW just so people outside of Seattle could post their brioche picks!

Cafe Besalu and Le Pain du Four in Seattle.

Rose's Bread and Specialities on Orcas Island - Eastsound.

Just got back from Original Bakery, and they only make brioche on Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays. They're also closed on Mondays. Today being Tuesday, of course, meant no brioche for me.

The good news for me is that I'll be on Orcas Island for a few days starting tomorrow, so I can try the brioche at Rosie's.

It was almost too easy.. heh heh.

But seriously, Ken does make really tasty brioche and the best croissants I've had since Just Desserts bought out and ruined Tassajara bakery in SF.
