For vague romantic reasons and the sheer quantity of poppy seeds, I've always surmised heroin. By the way, their vast array of dark Russian breads–it's at the intersection when West Hollywood becomes Russian–are almost always awful.

Otherwise, because I'm hopelessly curious, I'd have to ask, a 'front' for what Cheers, Alec

John, I think all of those poppy seeds gave you super powers!

Camille, If you like German like I like German, go. It really is good, especially the pastries, which are epic!

Now only 99 year old Aunt Emma still makes this stuff. But what a great find this week!

Thanks for the tip, I'll have to give this place a try!

I was a huge fan of le Stübli in the 17th and was quite upset when it closed. I didn't know about le Stube, but it's on my todo list now, thanks. Those deserts look incredible, I've already eaten, but I'm half tempted to run down there and try them out now. By the way, what is Palatinat Google doesn't want to enlighten me.
