French cruller at Tourist Home All Day Café

"You have to have a French cruller at least once," says Master Pastry Chef Kat Biemann. "Once they have it, some guests don't ever switch to anything else."

Tourist Home All Day Café isn't strictly confined to confections, but it has cultivated a following impressive enough to earn lines out the door on weekends. Pastries are baked fresh daily, and the weekends feature special themes like pretzels, doughnuts and cinnamon rolls.
