Dear PoPville

Where to get Peameal Bacon? A King Cake?

“Dear PoPville,

During this COVID Era I am craving certain foods and my roots are winning out. Does anyone know if you can get peameal bacon anywhere in this area? Dying for a roast and sandwiches!!!”

and

“Anyone have recommendations on where I can get a great King Cake this February in DC?”

Some early replies on the latter:

“Bayou Bakery in near Courthouse in Arlington. You need to order 48 hours in advance, but it’s so damn good!!!”

“Whole Foods haha, that’s where I got mine last year”

“Sorry, am Virginia focused. If that works, I would say @BayouBakery, @BestBunsBreadCo and Heidelberg Pastry Shoppe.”

“Ravenhook bakery has them for preorder & farmers market pickups”

“I got several for a work event a few years ago at @BestBunsBreadCo in Shirlington and they were perfect! Highly recommended.”

“PJ’s Coffee”

“Firehook bakeries have them”
