The Sansglu take

What to order

The almond cookie is the award-winner, crunchy outside and chewy in the middle, though Manhattan tends to vote chocolate chip. The real insider order is the gluten-free oat challah on a Friday.

Insider tip

Helene Godin walked away from 22 years as a lawyer to build this. The oat challah sells hundreds of loaves every Friday, it's 57% oat flour, and she developed it with a rabbi so it qualifies for the Hamotzi blessing. Everything is gluten-free, kosher, and mostly dairy-free, so it's the bakery that works when the room has every allergy at once.
