New Year's Day Brunch, Big Sur Bakery

Baked Goods, Big Sur Bakery
The Big Sur Bakery was a pleasant haven on this rainy New Year's day.  Though overpriced, a cup of drip coffee is locally roasted at Acme Coffee Company and refills are free.  Fresh pastries beckon to blurry eyes patrons from a lit display counter.  After sufficient caffeine infusion and sugar spike from a chocolate croissant, I had a perfect brunch: fish salad.  Though an unusual order for breakfast, this lovely meal featured local Monterey Bay halibut on butter lettuce with shaved fennel and Meyer lemon dressing.  The delicate fish and fresh vegetables were just right for this slightly hung over localite.  Okay 2011, let's see what you've got!
