    Remember when I wrote that I wasn't finished desserting, even after two scoops of gelato? Yeah…read more This. I needed macarons. I'm a sucker for a good macaron. It comes down to appearance, taste, texture (love a good bite; should not be mealy), chew, and substance. I'm pleased to report that Saint Germain satisfied my sweet (French) tooth. After the sampler, I was done desserting. Yep, sampler. Why settle for one flavor when you can try them all? Well, six. Six. I tried six. And each one was excellent. The staffer was patient and helpful in leading me to a mix that would satisfy my desire to be a bit broad in my tastes but never traveling too far from sweet. Savory is not the move when it comes to these treats. My journey to France by way of Atlanta started with chocolate then went to raspberry violette (what???) then I went to the circus with cotton candy. I got a bit traditional with salted caramel, stayed there with nutella and finished up with creme brulee. When I tell you each macaron was better than the first... wow. You definitely get what you pay for -- so this wouldn't be an everyday splurge but... when you get a hankering pay for the real deal. Your tastebuds will thank you. If you're gonna go, go all in. Next time I'll venture past the macarons... but not too far.

We ordered a shot of espresso and a jasmine tea. The espresso was strong and nice, but to our surprise the jasmine tea was literally a jasmine tea bag. We were expecting brewed tea and not just a tea bag especially for the price, hence the 4 stars instead of 5. We also ordered the peach tart which was delicious! It had a decent peach flavor to it and the top part of the peach had an ice cream texture to it. Would recommend ordering one of their pastries! Service was decent. We received our orders quickly. There is plenty of seating near the cafe and throughout the hall. There is also parking in a big lot connected to the hall.

    I've been here a few times before and always enjoyed it, but this last visit felt a little off…read more The music was very loud, to the point where we were basically yelling just to talk, which kind of took away from the experience. The drinks were okay at first, nothing crazy. One thing I will say though, the bartender came by to get feedback and actually adjusted my drink on the spot. I didn't like the espresso martini at all at first but after I said what was off, they knew exactly what to add and it ended up much better. The speakeasy vibe I remember also wasn't really there this time. The front felt a bit disorganized, and combined with the loud music, it just didn't have that same intimate, polished feel. Not sure if it was just an off night or if things are starting to slip a bit, but I'd still say it's worth trying for yourself.

    Someone told me about this place so I made reservations for my besties birthday. I'm so happy we…read morecame here the vibe was top tier. Dim lights and R&B music flowing. The drinks were very tasty. My fave was the Obe I believe (ube, matcha, Gin drink). Our server was very helpful and nice. The ladies in the front checking everyone in were also very friendly. Overall, this place is truly a gem. I didn't eat anything besides the pesto olives + pretzels (complimentary only upon request). I will be back for a date night

Hibiscus Limeade - Good and very refreshing. Peach Plane - Really enjoyed this one. The house-made syrup really made the drink. Yogurt with oranges, grapefruit & granola - Good! I think adding a little cinnamon would take it up a notch. Cinnamon Croissant - This was supposed to be warmed, but mine was more lukewarm. It was okay, but probably not something I'd order again. Crispy Prosciutto - Loved this. Definitely one of my favorites. Eggs Benedict - Good and would order again. Americano Burger - Really enjoyed this! I'm not a mustard fan, but the mustard they use on this burger was actually really good. My only issue was that the burger came out a bit after the Eggs Benedict, so the timing could have been better. One thing to note: their online menu showed shrimp & grits, which I was looking forward to trying, but it wasn't on the menu at the restaurant. They definitely need to update the website so the menus match. Parking: You do have to pay for parking. It was about $14 for 2-4 hours. Overall, I enjoyed Bread & Butterfly and would go back.?

    Great brunch spot. Wish they took reservations but it was only 20 min on a Saturday morning and…read morethere's plenty to walk around and see in the area while you wait. Everyone was super nice. Service was solid. Had the pancake which is solid, nothing over the top or too froofroo which I appreciated. Love a nice solid pancake. The salmon toast was also something that exceeded my expectations. Ambiance is nice. A cute little joint. Bloody Marys were also solid, although could use a bit more kick. I always get turned off when a place includes gratuity of 22% empirically. Not that it's not warranted it just leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Overall worth a visit and a return.

    Whenever my daughter goes to the Curb Market I always ask her to bring me something sweet because…read morelet's face it this marketplace has some of the best food and grocery spots all in one place. I thought she was going to go to this other place in mind but I stead she chose Breeze Confectionery. I will admit I never heard of the place but when she came home with three humongous slices of Key Lime Cake I had to looks them up in the net. The bakery has a French and African background. You can read more about them know their website. The desserts in the case make you want to swoon. What attracts me is all the colors. They have an extensive variety of cakes, pastries, croissants and even macarons. Oh what a joy to know that this establishment is located close enough to home and far enough all at the same time. The Key Lime Cake is a huge portion. It is 4 layers of goodness. As soon as I opened the container the smell came flowling out. You know it's good if the cake smells good. Oh my!!! I had to tirl it around to get a good look at it. It's a beautiful cake. The topping is a crunchy sugar, butter concoction. Made similar to strawberry crunch cake. The star of this cake is the fact that it's is extremely moist. MOIST!!!!! I tell you there is not I got dry about this cake. I could only eat the bottom layer but please believe I will nibble on this cake day by day until it is gone. Bravo to the owners I will spread the word of Facebook and Google. I hope you look at reviews because they do matter. My fellow Yelpers and Google folks make your way down to the heart of Atlanta, Municipal Market aka The Curbarket and have your self a treat. I do not believe you will be disappointed.

    Banana pudding cake is AMAZING !!!! Definitely recommend this bakery. You will NOT be disappointed…read moreif you try them out.
