Since we have moved here, one of our favorite places to visit as a family is Gainesville. There is never a time that anyone stays with us that we don't plan a day there. Any combination of Kanapaha, Relish, the University of Florida or Swamp Head Brewery make for a wonderful afternoon there. Today's trip took us a new place in Gainesville, Uppercrust Bakery. We had never heard of it until last summer when Cameron, Doug and I saw it featured on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. We had all wanted to try it since then and finally had a day to do so.
The bakery was crowded when we arrived, but not quite the long lines that the morning would have brought. Each one of us picked a croissant - chocolate raspberry for me, ham and cheese for Cameron and spinach and feta for Doug. There weren't a lot of tables at Uppercrust, so we decided to take our food to Swamp Head where Cameron could order his first beer there on his own. It was a beautiful afternoon to sit on their patio, enjoy our meal and watch basketball. The croissants were just as delicious as Guy Fierro said that they would be and in the end, we were all glad to add another wonderful place to visit on our frequent trips to Gainesville.
