Rigor Hill Market

8.0/10

AI-generated summary

The hot chocolate is the reason people go. It's thick like chocolate soup with melty marshmallows, and it's pricey. A couple of people found it cloyingly sweet and not worth it. The baked goods get named too, especially the filled with cream cheese.

    replying to u/SpeciousPerspicacity: What fun! If I were to take a single area, it would be a route from Tribeca, up through Chinatown, and then ultimately in the East Village. You begin at Frenchette Bakery, where you obtain some sort of filled feuilletée pastry and a baguette. Move through Chinatown and try to beat the line for a pork bun at Mei Lai Wah. Heading upwards through the LES, buy a cruffin from Supermoon, then snake through the EV, grabbing some nutty/floral thing from Librae, a slice of olive oil cake from Abraço, then a cardamom bun from La Cabra, and one more from Smor (to compare). There’s a Breads Bakery off Union Square for babka, and if you go Monday or Friday, She Wolf sets up at the farmer’s market there — their batard is just good bread. If you want to spend (lots of) money, you can end the day with a corn-shaped pastry at Lysée, in the Flatiron district. Whew! Quite a tour. You’ll be well-caffeinated too, because half of these places have more-than-respectable coffee programs (in fact, at least a couple listed above are actually closer to coffee shops with exceptional sweets than bakeries).

    “a focaccia from Rigor Hill Market.”
