Today, I met who I suspect is one of the owners of Brug.

I was buying bread because I wanted to eat my sardine sandwich. I was asking about the different pastries they have, and when they'll be open back in the new shopping center. Eventually, this guy interjected and shared that they're looking at new menu items all the time. He then shared with me that Brug apparently does custard pies now, and in a blind taste test... It's better than St. Germaine's.

Those are fighting words for anyone who loves St. Germaine's and custard pie... But I'm willing to give it a shot. I just need to call it in 1 day before I need it.
