Rudy's Bakery and Cafe

Street foodLocals' pick

A German bakery from 1934, Italian-American-owned since the 1980s, with the original terrazzo floor and its inlaid 'R'. Order the Black Forest cake crowned with one cherry, the cherry-and-cheese strudel or the Bienenstich (bee sting cake); it all leaves in pink boxes tied with red-and-white string.
