D's Belated Birthday Crawl Stop 1: Return to Herb & Eatery

Although D's birthday was in early August...

we were only recently able to do her birthday crawl earlier today...


I know I've been behind in my posts but such is life. Work is work and when I get home, I don't even want to look at a computer or a TV for that matter. 

Fall break is coming up with plans to meet friends pretty much every day and explore new places.  But also, it will be a time to get caught up little by little.

So,our first stop of the morning was at Herb & Eatery which Bert and I visited earlier this year during our trolley adventure on MLK day.  We get here around 8:30's and found a nearby lot. Everything for today's crawl would be here, in Little Italy.

The Educator GF's all got house coffee, D (the birthday gal), KD and TORC. I was holding out for coffee later at a new place.  Here were the pastries we shared, the mixed berry and two of their flaky and buttery croissants (the best I've ever had).



We four shared three items - two are repeats (Maple croissant + Thai croissant) and one was new, the Egg McPuffin (house made English muffin with fried over easy egg, white cheddar, yuzu aioli, sausage & arugula) and a side of fruit.

They really like using arugula here.


Of the sandwiches, I liked the chicken sausage in the Thai croissant the best. Wasn't a fan of the over easy egg, but friends liked it more so that's all good.  Everyone liked the berry pastry and croissants as well.  OMG...all this butter, ha ha!
