Fresh Bread

Cosi in Washington DC makes its pita-type bread in a brick oven. Love 'em! If I could, I would have one in my home. Great pic.

Real Bread

Now this photo shows REAL bread. Not that stuff with loads of chemicals which is called bread today. But I really do not like all that garbage underneath the oven. He should have been more sensible.

Church Pizza

We went to a bakery like this to get our bread, on Sundays they would make a pizza, we would buy this after going to church, that is why we called it church pizza, it was a plain pie with no cheese. These brick ovens would make the best bread and some places still make it this way.
