Lunchtime feels
Cheese Dog, 85 °C Bakery Cafe
Lunch at 85 °C Bakery Cafe recently hit all the nostalgic feels. Comparable to a pig in a blanket, the Cheese Dog ($2.20) reminded me of grade-school lunch. A frankfurter is snuggled inside a blanket of soft bread baked with cheddar and mozzarella cheese, mayo, ketchup and parsley sprinkled on top. I was dubious about baked mayo and ketchup, but it works. The ketchup adds a likened sweetness which undercuts the carb overload. More like a guilty pleasure than a culinary revelation, the Cheese Dog was a perfect precursor for the cakes, tarts and Asian baked goods I secretly wanted all along. 5591 Sky Parkway Suite 411, 85cbakerycafe.com.
