Tidbit: Unlimited Access to Freshly Baked Italian Bread

This may be the ONLY post or tidbit that I’ll write about and not expose its whereabouts. It used to beĀ  one of my favorite things to do in the middle of the night. My special friend bought me here a few years ago and since we recently had the idea to go the other day; it brought back all my memories of such good times.

So this is a bakery in Queens; they have normal hours til about 7pm. But since they have such a large operation, they work all night baking breads in all shape and form to be delivered in the crack of dawn and typically goes on all day. In the middle of the night, when fat asses like us are hungry for freshly baked hot Italian bread, we would come here into the back door and ask for some. We’d pay something like $1.25 for it and its straight out of the oven. Of course, it’s not exactly an official operation, but if you grew up in the neighborhood, the bakers would know your face and sell it to you.

In this world, you can get pretty far on your own, but it’s definitely a plus when you know someone. In this case, getting steaming hot bread at 2am…priceless.
