Although we didn't have much more than an iced coffee on our visit this time around, we wanted to share some pictures of the beautiful Bouchon Bakery in the Time Warner Center. The pastries looked gorgeous, and we were quite tempted both by the macaroons (we were sent home with some after our visit to per se) and by something they were calling a nutter butter that appeared to be two large peanut butter cookies with peanut butter sandwiched between. Yum. We'll be back to taste next time we aren't headed to the gym. In addition to the takeout counter, there's a full-fledged cafe right nearby.

I think the nutter butters are the best of all the cookies (I wasn't as into the others). My favorite things there are THE MUFFINS! MMM. MUFFINS. They're all good, although banana is my favorite because...I love bananas. Here are a bunch of photos I took.
The chocolate Bouchon is possibly the best brownie like object known to man. When served at the restaurant with chocolate sauce and fresh whipped cream- divine.
But last time I was there I ordered 3 to go from the counter and was charged for 4. Watch your receipts!
i could not agree more with above comments: the bouchon PB cookie ('nutterbutter') is INSANELY good. they have also achieve SUPERB scone texture (so flakey! so buttery! very a la clinton st. baking co. biscuit ...i.e. fabulous)the chocolate bouchon, while quite good, is actually bested by the identical in appearance but superior in taste brownie at babycakes in the LES. the babycakes is actually moister, denser and MORE chocolately. awesome!
The TKO's are awesome, Thomas kellers version of the oreo cookie, I highly reccomend them. Also the vegetable jardonnaire sandwich is delicious and so is the romaine salad with sous vide chicken, a great version of a caesar salad, light but very filling.
You should try to get a recent picture one day of the display case when I first set it up in the morning, plus there are more savory foods that have been added to it since Bouchon has opened, Retail opens at 8am.
