Great Bakery/pizzeria in College Station TX

Well the last few weeks have been very eventful and I haven't had time to stay in line or record it either. Basically many many activities in the great outdoors.

Now we are in College Station where my husband is attending and instructing at the Texas A & M Fire School. He is gone during the days and I am able to scour the city looking for cool shopping and cool places to eat.

Across University Drive from the Hilton where we are staying, is the Blue Baker Bakery. YUM! They have many vegetarian options in sandwiches and pizzas. They bake the pizzas in a huge brick oven and are baked to order. Tonight I had a Portabella Pizza, with garlic olive oil sauce, mozzarella, goat cheese, roasted portabella mushrooms and cilantro. SO GOOD!

I have wanted to make a veggie pizza but not sure what I wanted on it. I am not crazy about the tomato sauces, but didn't know what else to use. This olive oil with garlic was great - not too oily. I would use more garlic than they did probably for extra flavor. We have basil growing at home so I see many dishes using basil. And of course purple onions make anything better!
