Lox and Huevos
Sample the unlikely Mexican-Jewish fusion at Rustika Café & Bakery.
"I've been here for coffee, but I always thought of this place as a bakery," one of my lunch mates said when we sat down. Rustika makes custom cakes, and there are always some spectacular examples on display. There are several cakes cut into slices available from the bakery case. You'll also find some exceptional pastries and cookies, like alfajores with dulce de leche filling, moist coconut macaroons and lots of the little Jewish cookies called rugelach.
I was a little underwhelmed by a shrimp and chipotle dish I tried at Rustika. By and large, I would recommend that you steer clear of the more ambitious meat and seafood entrées. Try the pastries, the crepes, an oversized sandwich, a spicy Mexican egg dish, or one of the fascinating Mexican-Jewish fusion items instead.
