FLAT BREAD… Pavel’s Bakerei is now serving “phat” bread, which is like a personal pizza served on half a slice of homemade French bread. Get yourself a delicious slice of potato pesto, salame, margarita or BLT (bacon, lemon and tomato) for $10. They are open Tuesdays and Saturdays from 7am until 3pm, or until sold out. 219 Forest Ave., Pacific Grove. facebook.com/PavelsBackerei.
CREDIT CHECK… Little Napoli, Vesuvio and Carmel Bakery have all gone cashless, ostensibly in order to run more efficiently and keep prices from increasing. It’s a choice that has proven controversial at many other restaurants, both in Monterey County and beyond, with cold hard cash buying you nothing. But for now, remember to bring your credit cards if you go to dine at Chef Pèpe’s Carmel staple restaurants. chefpepe.com.

With such seasoned restaurateurs behind the scenes and esteemed Chef Mario Luevano in the kitchen, you can get excited about all the flavors that await. 1200 Del Monte Center, Monterey. konamonterey.com.
