Don't come to this bakery looking for sweets, unless it's biscotti you're after. It's all about pizza and bread and this old-school Italian spot, which has been around since the 1920s (though new owners took over in June 2008). Choose from a variety of warm Italian breads, or purchase an 18-by-26-inch sheet of homemade pizza for just less than $25. There's no room to dine in, just a few spots to sit while you wait, so plan to get your goods to go. If you're in a hurry or you're stocking up with a big order, call a day in advance.
