Famous Grains

Alberta might be famous for its wheat, but personally, we like the golden grain much better after it has been made into bread. 
Now we can devour world-renown fresh-baked loaves made right here in Calgary. COBS, a hugely popular Australian bakery chain, just opened its first location in Cowtown.
Making everything from scratch daily and using local ingredients whenever possible, the prices range from $.30 for a bun to $5.00 for a large specialty loaf. Best known for their healthy gourmet breads, COBS could turn any carb-foe into a sandwich fiend. The crunchy Cape Seed Loaf – packed with grains, seeds, sunflower and flax – will be perfect for our BLT. We’ll be turning to Apricot Loaf (made without added sugar or oil) for PB and jam.
And since we’ve never left a bakery without something sweet, we had to decide on something from the rows of fruity twists and flavourful scones. Our friendly neighbourhood baker made a suggestion: The double chocolate-chip scone, warmed up and topped with ice cream. The trick is getting home without eating the scone.
We placed an order for a baker’s dozen.
