Margaret Palca Now Bakes on Court Street


Margaret Palca Bakes isn't exactly a New York landmark yet, but it is sort of a Red Hook/Carroll Gardens West landmark, doing business in that nabe when back when nobody would.

It appears the outfit is branching out. I passed by a corner storefront on Court and Warren Streets with its windows papered with notices that Palca was now working out of the space. The corner used to house another bakery/deli/bagel place so anonymous and uninteresting that I don't even remember its name.

The company will still retain its store on Columbia Street, the clerk said. It will also apparently retain the same flat-footed service it offers at the old location. Palca makes good stuff, but it often takes an eon to get it. Get the lead out, guys! This is New York.
