While on a walk to Coolidge Corner this afternoon to attend to some errands, we made a stop at When Pigs Fly Bakery to pick up some dinner rolls — four for $1. These rolls are perfectly soft with just the right amount of chewiness. And just a quarter apiece! When Pigs Fly has a fantastic array of artisan breads, like orange/toasted walnut/cranberry, Sicilian green olive/hot cherry peppers, and strawberry/banana/brown sugar. Today we sampled the mushroom herb focaccia, and I can’t wait for the day they have the chocolate loaf out for tasting.
They also have a number of tantalizing cookies and pudding cakes. Their chocolate Heath cookie is huge and quite delicious. It has a somewhat cakey texture — not my preferred cookie consistency — but every bite is filled with multiple toffee chunks, so it all balances out.
