Prager Brother's Carlsbad.
Went there for lunch to give their bread another try.
Ham & cheese sandwich. C+ only. Both ham and cheese were good quality, but both tasted bland. Mustard didn't help much and baguette was rather dry although flavor was decent.
Chocolate croissant. Decent flavor, but lacks texture. No crunchiness at all. Deserves a "B" - a little toasting would help.

Great local spot with quality food and a cool atmosphere. I’ll...
