After not being able to sleep due to a warm winter night (yeah, 18 degrees celsius in the winter! Hooray for global warming?), I decided to walk down the street to my neighborhood bakery for breakfast.
I was feeling french toast and coffee, and seeing that they had it on special ($3.25 including tax), I ordered it! The food came out a couple of minutes later, and I'm sad to say, I didn't enjoy it. The french toast, albeit served in a huge portion, came out with a heavy dusting of cinnamon and with (I doubt it was maple) syrup on the side.
My first bite made me choke, and subsequent bites weren't about to redeem it. So, I threw it out and just had coffee instead. Blech!
This is not to say that Bakers' Dozen is a bad place, since I love their Manhattan special (hot pastrami with swiss cheese and sauerkraut on rye), it's just that their french toast sucks! They do have other stuff like bagels and muffins and other baked goodies, so I'll still go back for those. They also have a good selection of flavored cream cheeses and salads too.
Bakers' Dozen is located near the intersection of Lefferts Blvd and Austin St in Kew Gardens.

ness, i agree, it does look good. unfortunately, that was it. blech!
steph, here's what i would do. dip bread triangles in a mix of egg and milk with brown sugar dissolved in it. pan fry until brown. then dip in maple syrup and bake in a 350 deg oven for about 10-15 minutes. sprinkle with cinnamon powder. then, get ready for sugar coma!
