The Baleada at La Tiendita II
Tiny store and restaurant in Lakewood. I’d never had a baleada before. It’s a Honduran tortilla (thick, soft, more flavorful), a generous smear of beans, crema, queso, eggs, and avocado +/- meat. The whole is much greater than the sum of its parts.

It was Poog the whole time.

I was intrigued by this rec and went here during a short trip to Chicago. I loved all of these mentioned below, although my favorite was the cheese kouign-amann, which was wonderful fresh out of the oven. Everything at this bakery seems to be unique and satisfying.
Dreamfarm Mini Supoon
A perfect gift from @Laurie, this little spoon can do many things, is unexpectedly satisfying to use, and has a built in spoon rest. I value it most for scraping out the last remnants of almond or peanut butter from every crevice of a jar in a way that a tiny silicone spatula can’t.
