Yes, we had to make sure our itinerary included a visit to Carlos Bakery in Hoboken, New Jersey. Hoboken is a beautiful town. We didnt expect a huge line up to Carlos Bakery, so we decided to walk the length of Washington Street, to check out what else Hoboken had to offer. We returned to the bakery and joined the 2 hour line in the cold day of New Jersey. We finally entered the shop (crowded but overwhelming), we bought a number of cakes and took them back to our hotel room. I must admit the cakes tasted better than what I imagined. Being a huge Papas cake fan, (
http://www.pasticceriapapa.com.au/main.html), (Haberfield, Sydney Australia), it was going to take allot of convincing that Buddys cakes were as good as what he boasts about on his show.
Well the cakes were Great.
Hoboken has many great places to eat. A typical Irish / Italian suburb filled with Italian Delis, pizzerias and Irish pubs. Be sure to visit Vitos Deli (

(http://www.grimaldis.com/hoboken.htm) whilst in Hoboken.
The only chance to get a photo infront of the store was late at night.
Inside the store. (Very crowded)
