Columbus Baking Company
On a recent trip to Syracuse, New York I stopped at this landmark bakery. Having grown up 25 miles away I was raised on this bread. Columbus has been making Italian bread in Syracuse since 1895 and it is my all-time favorite. Walking in the front door is a step back in time. You are not walking into a shiny retail area with the typical glass counters holding baked goods. Once you close the door behind you, you find yourself standing in the bakery itself. Here they make 3 shapes of Italian bread and that is all they do. Loaves of bread are stacked up at the small four-foot counter next to the door and one of the many bakers will come over while wiping the flour from his hands to ring you up. Best bread ever!
