You Need to Visit Madison’s Newest French Bakery
There’s a new french bakery in Madison, tucked away in the old New Orleans Take-out spot on Fordem Ave by the railroad tracks. It’s a non-descript spot on Madison’s northside. A small sandwich board stands outside. The old jazz mural is still there.
But inside, the flavors explode. Handmade asparagus quiche with buttery, flaky dough. Kouign-amann, the cake that seems to be half butter by weight. Fresh baked croissants. Savory tarts. Spice buns.
It’s called Far Breton Bakery. And their grand opening is tomorrow.
Owner Marie-Arzel Young shares some of her baking secrets with us… and let’s just say... they involve butter.
🥐 Join us every Thursday as we explore Madison's food culture, from the brewers and bakers to the chefs and cheesemakers.
