Was the new cafe "Bunny Bakes" posted about here?
Run by the friendship circle, it's a really nice cafe with great drinks and pastries. Cholov Yisroel and Pas Yisroel.

Someone brought me a box. The cookies/pastries were very reminiscent of Sweet Tammy's. Is she involved?

Can we also revive Simple Treat, King David, Leibel's, and Sari's while we're at it?

I'm not aware of her being involved, but I don't know what's going on BTS.

Ready to come down and help pit figure out their food scene in a sustainable way? :)

FWIU they're very pro-Hamas/BLM/progressive current thing and many people won't go there due to that.
