Break Bread and Feed Your Spirit at Alon’s Bakery & Market
In 1992, Alon’s Bakery & Market opened their flagship store in Atlanta’s popular Virginia-Highland neighborhood. Alon’s was a perfect complement to the shops, bars and restaurants populating this hip, urban, and extremely “walkable” area of Atlanta. It immediately became a favorite gathering place where locals and visitors alike could enjoy a wide selection of artisans breads, European-styled cakes, pastries and cookies, gourmet sandwiches, prepared foods, cheeses and fine chocolates. However, Alon’s is much more than a gourmet market. “Alon’s is an eatery, a scratch bakery, a gourmet market and an artisan caterer where quality, authenticity and craftsmanship are infused in every detail.”
Alon’s motto is “Honest Food – Friendly Service,” and this motto is carried out in every aspect of their operations. Their mission is as follows: “to create honest hand-crafted food and bring an authentic international experience to your table.” This nationally recognized and award-winning establishment offers high quality artisan cuisine in a unique atmosphere that emulates the authentic, yet cozy feeling of a European market. In a world where highly processed food is the norm, they are proud to be an all made-from-scratch establishment, using natural starters in their breads, high-quality butter in their pastries and the finest chocolate available in their desserts and candies. After twenty-four years in business, Chef Alon Balshan and his talented team have collected various nods from local and national publications including: Bon Appétit, Candy Industry, Atlanta Magazine, BuzzFeed, Jezebel, Modern Luxury, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Zagat Survey and Creative Loafing, to name a few. While the awards and accolades are nice, their real goal is for their patrons and catering clients to enjoy their food as much as they enjoy preparing it. As a result of their success, they now have a second location at Park Place in Dunwoody, across from Perimeter Mall.
In addition to their gourmet markets, Alon’s has a catering and event offering for occasions large and small. In fact, Alon’s Catering has been serving the Atlanta area with an uncompromising dedication to the freshest and highest quality ingredients since 1992. For years they have catered events ranging from weddings, to baby showers to funeral gatherings for individuals and corporations across Atlanta. I personally have used them several times for events in our commercial and residential properties, and I have never been disappointed. Their catering menu includes everything from crowd-pleasing combinations to old-world classics and foodie-friendly American artisan selections. Whether you need a sandwich platter for 12, a birthday cake or a party for 1000, Alon’s will help you create an exceptional meeting, party or event experience.I would highly recommend Alon’s for your next catered event. It is also a great place to stop and pick up some gourmet items to throw in your picnic basket for a concert at Chastain Park Amphitheatre. Alon’s cordially invites you to come in and break bread, renew your spirit and taste the difference today. I recommend that you take them up on their offer!
