A new local market has been set up at the outside entrance to Union Station, near the metro, from 7am to 7pm. Lyon Bakery of SW DC is one of the vendors. Their bread is $3 a loaf, baguettes are $2, and the rolls are only $1 for four. Good prices. 🙂
We bought a loaf of sliced sourdough, a wholewheat baguette (they also have French baguettes, and Italian bread) and some rolls (sourdough, multi-grain, and rosemary, but not the jalapeno). So far, we have tried the whole wheat baguette, a sourdough roll, but they were both good.
Update: The sliced sourdough was good but was in commercial shrink wrap (they sealed it themselves with a heat machine) instead of a bag. That means, when you open the bag, it is broken and you have a lot of bread, and no bag. Poor execution.
They are partnered with Frozen Yogurt Indulgence (the next stand over) which was also good – we had samples. The vendor not only volunteered the calorie count for the suggested serving size, but also volunteered it for the actual serving size.
There is also a kiosk with cobblers ($8). They normally have samples, but they were out of samples.
