Mountain View Manna - new to me
A few months ago I had breakfast at the Melt Away in Belmont/Tilton. They served a great bread for toast- orange cranberry. They told me they buy the bread in a little place down the street. For weeks I've been meaning to stop in. I finally did about 3 weeks ago. The place is called Mountain View Manna and if you were on Rt 3 headed to Winnisquam, its a little yellow cottage on the right hand side of the road somewhere between the Shalimar and the bridge. I think the cottage used to be a cigar store and maybe a trading card store at one point. Anyway, the bread they make is wonderful. For the past 3 weeks I've been buying a loaf of either the Maple Walnut or Orange Cranberry-they make a killer french toast! They also make wheat and and asiago but I haven't strayed from the sweet recipes yet. Its a tiny place and they don't keep a large inventory in the store-I think they're still fairly new in the location and trying to work out the right level of demand. The gentleman in the store is husband of the baker and is very friendly. I can't wait to head up this weekend and replentish my bread supply. Anyone tried them? Or have they been around forever and I'm just discovering them?
