We're Throwing a Quinceañera For Metropolitan Bakery
October 22, 2008 at 9:00 am
Foobooz informs us that Metropolitan Bakery is celebrating its 15th birthday this fall. They're putting together a calendar full of recipes and customer anecdotes to benefit a local charity--how benevolent of them! Because of the DP/Street office's close proximity to Metro, many staffers are regulars there, and this affords us a slightly different perspective on their current charitable endeavor: namely that that Metro employees are some of the most bitter and pretentious people we've ever had the displeasure of interacting with. But still, good luck with the calendar!
Another little-known sidenote regarding the DP/Street/Metro nexus: Last year when Street conducted a sex survey, one respondant took the liberty of writing in that (s)he found a certain Metro employee who was at the time also a DP editor--and this is a direct quote--"bangable." So maybe we just have a Chuck and Blair-style love/hate thing going on with the bakery? Whatever floats your boat... Happy 15th, Metro! In three short years you will be old enough to pretend to be 21 and sneak into MarBar across the street!
