Piroshky Piroshky | Pike Place Market

Finally, I got to the line at the internet-famous bakery Piroshky Piroshky. I went there early today, so the line wasn't very long. This is a bakery opened by Russians, and it's said to have been open since 1992. I bought the popular smoked salmon bread and apple cinnamon rolls. The taste was okay, but not as good as the reviews online. But overall, it's still a very creative bakery, and the salmon bread is very cute [so happy]. ​

I picked a great pair of pastries. One was still warm out of the oven. Great rhubarb filling. I also liked the cinnamon cardamom braid. Fun people behind the counter and customers were boisterous as well.

There are all kinds of bread, and they taste pretty good. They are great to buy and eat on the road. The caramel bread is delicious, and the whole wheat bread is also good. They are absolutely first-class snacks for traveling.

This is a very popular bakery in Seattle. There are two of them. I went to the bustling one when I was at Pike Place Market. The store is relatively small and the decoration is very simple. It can't be compared with the exquisite French style of Le Panier nearby. There were not many people when we went there to buy. The second time I went to Pike Place Market alone, the length of the line in front of the store was comparable to that of Starbucks not far away. The breads are all very big. I bought salmon bread and beef bread according to the recommendation. They were warm in my hands. I took a few bites of the salmon bread. It was really delicious when it was just out of the oven. It was salty and delicious, and the filling was solid. Russian bread is really honest. I went back to the hotel and put the bread in the refrigerator. I had it for breakfast the next day. The iced one is definitely not as delicious as the fresh one, but it's not bad. I walked out with the help of the wall after eating one. I just don't know why it is much saltier than the day before. Doesn't food become salty only after it is heated?

Piroshky Piroshky was the coffee shop we saw when we went to the first Starbucks. We could smell its delicious aroma from afar. There was a very long queue as if people were waiting for something delicious. But we thought it looked good so we didn’t wait.
