There is a new bakery in town and it is German. Based on initial feedback from several customers it is dammed good as well. Prost! For those of you who a tried of the lines at Carlo's Bakery I have news for you there is a bit of a line at Hoboken's newest bakery that opened up just this morning. The owners had a sign outside thanking customers for their patience in waiting for their grand opening. Question: Why is it always so difficult for new businesses to open up in this town?  What is so "special" about Hoboken that it always seems take businesses s long to pen up their stores? I hope the new owner whose name I believe is Aslin Takici can make a go of it and thrive despite delays in opening.

The customers that were there seemed very happy that Hoboken finally has a real German bakery in town. the buzz leading up to this establishments opening was evident to some extent on the social media websites. I did not sample anything yet as I have dietary restrictions on bread and sweets but reader Tara emailed me that she tried a white bread roll (looks like 2 small tennis balls joined together) just with butter which was delicious. She also tried a slice of cherry cake which she also found to be quite delicious.

Below are some photos of Hoboken's latest establishment:

The "Old Country" uniforms add to the German charm
