The Scene
Step through the art-nouveau arches into a faux Parisian bakery. Glass-covered cases are lined with rows of pastries, glass jars on shelves are stuffed with brightly colored candy and beaded chandeliers add sparkle to the already gleaming space. Patrons of all ages come to sip tea, read the paper and linger in the leather-covered banquettes or at the bistro tables outside.
The Food
French pastries and sweets are made with buttery authenticity. Croissants crackle at the crisp ends, only to blossom into puffs of delicate pastry. Either plain with jam or with added fruit, like the tangy pear tart, they go perfectly with a cup of coffee. For lunch, try the earthy and robust prosciutto panini sandwich stuffed with homemade mozzarella or the semisweet Brie and pear panini. On the way home, fill a box with apricot-raspberry shortbread cookies and chocolate-covered almond chews.

Jenna is great to work with--she's down-to-earth, really nice, polite, and courteous without any of the snobbiness that some other bakeries have. Most importantly, she seems to be passionate about baking and you can tell by trying one of her cakes! We ordered 2 Bear (chocolate) cakes and one Berry Blossom cake for our wedding. The cost of a 3-tiered cake exceeded what we budgeted for the wedding cake, but Jenna helped to accomodate our budget by making them 3 separate cakes then decorating them w/ flowers--it worked out great! The cakes are to die for--made with fresh whipped cream and berries and meringue... My mouth waters just thinking about it. The only thing we regret is not taking a big chunk of the wedding cake with us after the wedding!

I have coming here for a couple of years now. The banana cream pie, fruit bowls, Quiches tarts are all fabulous! I had them make my wedding cake recently and everything looked so good they ended up making my wedding cake, grooms cake and an extra cake and assortment of cookies for the reception! My husband and I try new places all the time and NOTHING compares to Susina as far as the quality of food and ambiance... REALLY! Sweet lady Jane is a joke compared to Susina- rude service, not a lot of choices, and the last time I was there they screwed up two orders in a row at pickup time! I will never cheat on Susina again!
