Monterey: Parker-Lusseau Pastries; restaurant review

1 South

Parker-Lusseau Pastries  

in Fremont Adobe

731 Munras Ave., (831) 643-0300.  W-Sat 7-4:30; $$.  No cards. 

This is the main location for Parker-Lusseau Pastries, where everything from French desserts to artisan chocolates to wedding cakes are prepared.  The almond croissant and hot chocolate are particularly delicious at breakfast, and soup, sandwiches, and quiche are options at lunch.

A branch of the popular bakery (depicted above; at 539 Hartnell St., downtown, (831) 641-9188.  M-F 7-5:30, Sat 7:30-4.) is situated within the carefully restored two-story Fremont Adobe, which some believe was once the headquarters of John C. Fremont.  Tiny tables are available inside as well as outside on a small porch and in an adjacent garden.
