People dart in hip and casual Café Lulu for lunch or a jolt of caffeine throughout the afternoon.

On weekends it's a popular destination after the bars close. Belly dancers and music liven things...

Combined with a wide variety of spices and other flavorings, chocolate seems much more intriguing here. Truffles made with Earl Gray tea, lavender-scented fleur de sel, basil, Balsamic vinegar, peppercorns, and chile powder;...

Michele Coulon takes no shortcuts. She uses nothing but top quality ingredients: local produce (organic whenever possible), the richest chocolate, the finest liqueurs, and real butter and cream. In truth, everything she makes is fantastic, but some popular examples are the Lemon Bavarian (light cake with Bavarian cream and lemon curd), and the...

But the baked goods and desserts are what keep folks coming back. It's a great morning stop for coffee and scones, or for dessert later in the day. Standouts include the pavlova (meringue, whipped...

The Cookie Lady's snickerdoodles have been known to sway even the most stringent of Atkins adherents. She makes big, old-fashioned cupcakes that people drive miles to nab. Her brownies and lemon bars have been known to induce uncontrollable cravings. Loyal fans would prefer to keep this out of the way bakery/café to themselves, a hidden gem in La...
