Kugelhoupf sign - Monarch Cakes
I love the chocolate and hazelnut Kugelhoupfs here!
I once took a slice home and warmed it up so that the rich chocolate and hazelnut filling is softened. It is amazing. :)

Yummy cakes and good coffee.
Especially notable is the Kugelhoupf and Cream Cheese Danish.
The owner, Gideon Markham, will talk your ear off if he's free :)
