Stop daydreaming at work and eat a croissant
Close
your eyes. You've just spent a dewy morning on the Swiss slopes, and settle in
at your châlet to a hot mug of fresh coffee, crackly bread that steams when you
rip into it, and a delicately spun croissant with layers of fluffy pastry
wrapped around a gooey almond center. You're probably wearing a very thick,
woolen sweater with some sort of woodland animal on it.
Open your
eyes. Still in your cubicle? Damn, us too. Sorry about that.
Now that
we've thoroughly depressed you, here's some good news: Reading's own swissbäkers, bearers of legit
Swiss pastries and bread, are celebrating three years of homey baked goods and
fantastic pretzel bread sandwiches tomorrow, March 7, and in classic hospitable Swiss
fashion, they're giving you gifts.
Foremost on this list of goodies is the chance to live out your châlet
daydream: a week in Silvaplana,
Switzerland, or
a week split between Grindelwald and Melchnau. And all you have to do is eat
fabulous pastries and enter your name! Genius!
The party
will be last during their regular business hours, 5:30am-2pm. If at any point you
feel the need to escape your work to-do list and seek refuge in a little Massachusetts pocket of Switzerland, the Stohr family has you covered.
Plus, word on the street is that swissbäkers will be opening an Allston location this summer. Stay tuned for updates!
