I was born a foodie. My dad is a chef, baker, and restaurant owner and my mom might as well be because she owns whatever kitchen she walks into. I grew up working in my family’s restaurant and bakery in Pawling, New York – McKinney and Doyle. I started behind the bakery counter at 12 years old after begging my parents to let me start working. At 16 I worked as a hostess. By 18 I was serving tables and training behind the bar where I then worked every other weekend throughout my college career. Even now, when I am visiting my family in New York, I help out where I’m needed. To make a long story short, the food and restaurant industry has been my life for as long as I can remember.

I wanted to create this blog for a few reasons. First and foremost, to share tips, tricks, and knowledge about the food and beverage industry in general but also to help people see a different side of the restaurant world. Every restaurant has a totally unique culture and world within it. I want to help open people’s eyes to more than how fast the service is or how easy or hard it is to secure a reservation.

So, thanks for stopping by! I welcome your ideas, input, and feedback and hope you enjoy!

Eat well & travel often,

We could not be more excited to announce that the bakery will be opening its doors this coming Tuesday, June 16 at 7AM sharp!

I hope you can feel our excitement because we have been waiting for this day for what feels like an eternity.


Check out our updated hours below:


New Bakery Hours:


Tuesday – Saturday: 7AM to 7PM

Sunday: 7AM – 4PM


We will still be offering orders through our square site in addition to walk in ordering. Please keep in mind that all orders will be for carry out only and while we wish we could hug each and every one of you, we do ask that you please wear your masks and practice appropriate social distancing in the shop.

What to expect inside:
We will be offering a selection of all of your favorites including pies, tarts, pound cakes, cookies, layer cakes, danish, muffins, breads, rolls, fresh juices, shakes, soda floats and of course our freshly roasted coffee and espresso drinks (ya know … the necessities).


We’ll be adding to the selection as time goes by so please bear with us as we begin this reopening process.


Thank you all again for the amazing amounts of support over the last few months. It truly means the world to us. We love and appreciate you as part of our M&D family and we cannot wait to see you in the bakery!
