i haven't confirmed the quality of the o.c. daves as i don't normally shop there, but the daves located on harvard near broadway has impressed me lately with their bread/bakery. my parents live in the neighborhood, and my dad picked up a loaf of italian bread from there, and i must say it's the best i've had in some time.

they also have a selection of rolls that is the closest thing to german brotchen i've had outside of deutschland. maybe they've got some nana's from the nearby slavic village working there or something, but the stuff is surprisingly good.

is it breadsmith, or woodfired oven whole grain artisan bread? no.

is it fresh, incredibly crusty, soft pillowy inside bread that hearkens back to proper bakeries in supermarkets? absolutely.

Stefan,
Do you ever go to Mazzone's on Clark and Fulton. Their hours are not customer friendly, but if you can get there while open, they have unique and excellent pizza, and the loaf of rye I bought there this week was devour-in-a-day good!
