m longs for lincoln to become like wilshire in santa monica. superba food + bread is bringing her dream one step closer. this venice bakery/cafe is the sibling to superba snack bar and is only 2 blocks away. it joins fellow trendy/tasty neighbors such as centanni, tradesmen, and general store. we ate lunch there today and it was pretty good. i particularly liked the venue with its exposed beams and open, airy layout. its coffee station is top-notch, too, although we didn’t have coffee.

- pastry bar in the background. the front door is to the right of this photo and the kitchen is off to the left.
-
- elmer t. copeland’s buttermilk drop biscuit. a lot like ours except ours is saltier and theirs is sweeter and more greasy. honestly, i like ours better and ours is always warm and fresh.
-
- salmon belly blt. / bacon, iceberg, tomato jam / too sweet. needed a vinegar or spicy counterpoint.
-
- bahn mi / pork sausage, house baguette / also a bit sweet but the fresh jalapeno and sweet pickled daikon balanced this sandwich.
