La Tartine

Taste

After Brasserie Bread, La Tartine is my second favourite bakery. Some of my favourites include Fruit ($5.95) 650g and Rye & Caraway ($5.35) 700g. This time we needed white bread, so picked up the White Campagne ($4.95). "campagne" actually means not a block loaf, and tastes pretty much like white bread, only more airy and slightly more dense. White bread is my least favourite bread, so I wasn’t overly excited, but it was still good nevertheless.

Ok, our next try was Wholemeal Tin ($4.95)

Rating - 7.5

Look

The White Campagne was a pretty oval loaf with white flour dusting, while the tin looks like it's from a tin!
