A good bakery is judged by its pies and sausage rolls, which should have generous fillings that taste of the meat or cheese they promise. Bread and pastry are at their best early in the day, so an earlier visit usually gives the widest choice. Many regulars ask what was baked that morning, since it shows how fresh the cabinet is. When you choose a bakery, look through the cabinet glass at the fillings and see whether local customers are coming and going.
