  "title": "First Look: Patisserie 46 in Kingfield, Minneapolis",
  "note": "by James Norton on July 7, 2010\n\nBecca Dilley / Heavy Table\n\nThe Minneapolis corner of 46th St. and Grand now contains an embarrassment of food related riches: the uneven but sometimes excellent Cafe Ena, the charismatic and intriguing Kings Wine Bar, and now Patisserie 46, a high-end bakery that opened yesterday morning.\n\n\nBecca Dilley / Heavy Table\n\nThe creation of John Kraus (named one of Pastry Art & Design Magazines Top Ten Pastry Chefs in America 2005 and 2006), Patisserie 46 specializes in cunningly crafted small bites that youve probably never quite tasted before. Small cakes are miniature works of art, and offerings of coffee and gelato help round out the shops appeal  the only thing missing is a more robust savory option, although a) theyve only been open a day, and b) the quiche looked quite good.\n\nTheir eclair ($3, if memory serves, pictured above) is a reinvention of the form. Boasting a crunchy, streusel-style topping and a rich chocolate filling, the appropriately chewy pastry is modestly sized and deeply flavored. Similarly classic and vivid is the macaroon ($1.95)  we tried an Earl Grey with housemade orange marmalade filling version that was punchy and delicious, with all the crispy-chewy texture youd hope for.\n\n\nBecca Dilley / Heavy Table\n\nA baguette ($2.75) was good, but not quite at the level of local champ Rustica  the exterior was soft, but the interior had real substance, flavor, and texture. Still, a good baguette is a great, if sometimes underappreciated, thing.\n\nPatisserie 46Bakery in Kingfield, Minneapolis\n\n4552 Grand Ave SMinneapolis, MN 55419612.354.3257HOURS: Tue-Fri 7am-6pmSat 7am-7pmSun 7am-2pmMon CLOSED\n\nOWNER / CHEF: John KrausBAR: NoRESERVATIONS: No\n\n\nBecca Dilley / Heavy Table",
