Oatmeal Wheat Germ Bran Chocolate Chip Cookies, to name a few: Specialty's Cafe & Bakery, Westwood
As promised in subject title Being a lover of all things from the oven I was more than happy to attend Specialty's Cafe + Bakery Launch party at their recently opened location in Westwood. The newly opened and Japanese-like in efficient technology (mobile ordering, cookie radar alerts, etc) and made from scratch every day equipped with a full Peet's coffee bar joint located in a corporate tower (to be easily accessed by busy white-collared worker bees) called my name as soon as I stepped in with this: Things that make me hot and bothered I eyed the classics like freshly made Cinnamon Rolls, wondering if this was my breakfast destiny. I sampled some of the spiced buttery dough goodness of the Cinnamon Sugar Morning Buns, a fancier version of the cinnamon toast I used to eat growing up. Cinnamon Toast in a Bun form Being a muffin lover, I shared the Yogurt Cranberry Muffin with the Mathlete. The thought of tartness from both the cranberries and yogurt intrigued me, however I was slightly let down by the overall dryness of the baked batter. Good thing I had a large Peet's coffee to wet my whistle. A great way to drink more coffee We split the Roasted Vegetable Mini-Quiche which proved to be a cute, compact and a highly tasty cheesy egg blast. We both could have eaten another one, that's how Mini-Quiche, Small Enough Not to Share We also shared the Black + White Cookie which was a little too sweet for my taste buds in the morning, but no doubt would rev me up in the afternoon with some more Peet's coffee. Lots of large white chunks of chocolate involved. I preferred the scone-like nutty and obviously more wholesome Oatmeal Wheat Germ Bran Chocolate Chip Cookie (which I had for breakfast the next day). Chocolate Blasts in your Cranium The Mathlete got a loaf of the Sesame Sourdough ($3.75) to take home which we couldn't help but eat while inside the store with some butter. The thick slices were ridiculously soft with a hearty crust. The sourdough was definitely a milder version, almost tasting a bit sweet. I am curious about their other breads including the Potato Poppy Seed and Herb, but that will have to wait for my next visit. Bread to go! 11150 Santa Monica Blvd Los Angeles, CA 90025
