Visting my brother in California, my first stop was to baker Pascal Rigo’s La Boulagerie de San Francisco. Actually, I had initially tried Chad Robertson’s Tartine, but it was closed for a staff party. Interesting aside about Pascal Rigo; a few years ago, Starbucks invested in his bakeries, after which he left to reorganize a series of bakeries in France. Anyway, we had a good visit to his La Boulangerie.
