German-American Bakeries in the Outer Boroughs?

Sad to say, Bauer's has been sold to an Indian patissier. Gone are the German specialties.

New Astoria Greek

Stamatis is pretty bad these days. I used to get a lot of take out food and got to know the guys behind the counter pretty well. They now waive off most of the items I ask for and just direct me towards a pasticchio or mousaka. They might as well waive me out the door.

Saturday Brunch in Queens?

Tournesol has really gone bad. I ordered a steak frites my last time there and it was unchewable. It was like chewing on a rubber tire. Not good. Manducatis Rustica is much better.

Saturday Brunch in Queens?

I had brunch there and it was pretty bad. The staff is hopeless and the food is very mediocre -- just like Astoria!
