Overheard on the San Francisco Bay Area Board

"Cheese Board in Berkeley has pletzel on Saturdays—slices about 4 inches by 6 inches, abundant seeds, thin (but not cracker-thin) and chewy (they use their all-purpose pizza/bialy/focaccia dough)." – dordogne

"The cookies are shaped like a little hockey puck, studded with whole pistachios and iced in a lemon glaze. The intense buttery flavor is offset perfectly by the tartness of the lemon and the richness of the pistachios." – tamarinda on the lemon-pistachio shortbread at Bette's-to-Go in Berkeley

"That bread is probably my favorite bread of all time. ... There are sesame seeds within and scattered on top and the nuttiness of the sesame just adds a whole new dimension to the already wonderful flavor profile of the bread. And there is NOTHING like getting a fresh, still-warm loaf and having that strong crackle of the outer crust give way to the springy, almost wet and hearty crumb of the inside." – j.jessica.lee on Tartine's sesame bread
