Found: Pastries at Ba Le

Those who know Ba Le Sandwich and Cafe know it for the fusion of cuisine staples from around the world.  Their Banh Mi (sandwiches) on French Baguettes may be stuffed with Lemongrass Pork, Jalapeños and Pickled Daikon, to name just one.  But what may get overlooked is the pastry cabinet just beyond the registers!  Satisfy your sweet tooth with one of their fruit topped pastries, cakes or whipped cream covered mousse offerings while also enjoying the view of Argyle St from their outdoor cafe!
