A Muslim-owned bakery in Chinatown called Woodlands Sourdough has officially opened with a broad range of delicious menu items perfect for breakfast or brunch. All of the loaves of bread and pastries sold at this takeout-only kiosk are made with stone-ground wheat grain flour and organically leavened with sourdough cultures.
One of the restaurant's most popular items is the 'Comte Cheesy Twist,' which is a sourdough bread pastry made with melted, sweet cheese. There is also a 'Grilled Cheese Toastie,' which is a grilled cheese sandwich with two pieces of crispy sourdough.
Consumers can also enjoy coffee drinks like the 'Cata Coffee,' the 'Latte,' 'Cold Brew,' and 'Espresso Tonic,' which pair well with the pastries for an early morning snack.
