The Best Brioche Rolls
Last Wednesday, we discovered the best brioche rolls that we ever had at Bouchon Bakery. On a lark, we stopped in at this terrific shop at the Time Warner Center, hoping to find some interesting bread to serve with our Thanksgiving meal, and were delighted to find these little glistening gems nestled in a Bouchon box. Sold only by the dozen ($9), they were made especially for the holiday, but the pleasant staff assured us that the small brioche loaf ($4.50) that is offered on a regular basis is made from the same recipe. And we’re hoping that the rolls will be back during the December holiday season.
If you haven’t already been to Bouchon Bakery, it certainly is worth a detour if you’re in the neighborhood. They also sell a mouth-watering selection of viennoisseries and pastries, and offer soup, sandwiches and salads to go.
A bit of a recap of our Thanksgiving hits and misses. The turkey from Schatzie was absolutely delicious. We were disappointed in the Pugliese Vineyards sparkling wine, but did think the Bedell Cellars 2005 Reserve Merlot was terrific and went extremely well with the Thanksgiving feast. Pat’s rendition of Bill Yosses’ pignoli tart was a good sturdy effort, but not memorable.
