And P30 cheaper per loaf. Thank you for the post! After 5 and a half years in Manila, I finally found the type of heavy, grainy and fiber filled bread I was looking for.....

When the bread is toasted, the crust is delicious and crisp—I usually dislike the crusts on bread. They don't come pre-sliced, so the thickness of the slice is entirely up to the way you slice it yourself. I'll want to give the French Baker whole grain bread a shot, since Lartizan is out of the way, and FB branches are easier to find.

I had two thoughts immediately upon opening this post: 1) Yay, real whole grain bread! 2) Why are the slices so thin??? Maybe they did that because the bread is already heavier than most, but for people like me, skinny slices mean license to either eat more slices, or pile on more filling! :-D Hahaha…This is why we get along, Lori.
