Read MoreGrowing up in this neighborhood for a few years in my young life, I'm always happy to see a new business with something good on the Westside.I actually caught this place out of the corner of my eye, expecting a Middle Eastern restaurant that was there before, and when I saw the words French and Algerian bakery. I practically slammed on my brakes turning around to check it out.Man was I ever glad that I did this. A lot of people, especially students in this town, Don't really know what a real baker is, or the kind of things they create until they taste it and are blown away. I walked in here, noting a cafe tables outside on University avenue, and met the proprietor, Nadir, a master baker from Algeria.When you walk into the place, on the left are more of the French classical treats, and on the right are the Algerian and Turkish pastries, which are simply mind-blowing and amazing. Add to that, the staff is super friendly, all the baked goods are made there daily, there are chairs and seats outside, and to top it all off they make espresso drinks, as well as drip coffee. I think this is the spot that I was waiting for.I'm going to tell everybody that this is the spot to go for baked sweets, and I believe Nadir also does custom orders for people upon request. When you want to treat yourself to something truly special in West Berkeley, and love real, masterfully baked old school pastries, this is the spot to go. Say hi to Nadir!
