'We took ingredients that are very Middle Eastern, flavors that represent us and places we love, and added them to a Scandinavian/Danish pastry template,' said Dona Murad, who with husband Andre Gerschel just opened Librae Bakery on Cooper Square.
Dona Murad and Andre Gerschel married each other three times during the pandemic: once in Bahrain, once in Central Park, once in France. These days they live with both of their moms in an apartment near Union Square , and share a gloriously complicated background., "including Bahraini, Persian, Indian, Moroccan, Jewish, Muslim, and Christian." Gerschel grew up on the Upper East Side, went to school in Canada, and until recently owned a restaurant group based in Dubai.
The Croissants here are first-rate, with a crackling shell and plenty of light, lovely layers inside. Librae brings out a Rose Pistachio version at times — if you see it behind the counter, order it — and their Pain de Chocolate, complete with espresso glaze, is superb. There are surprises, too, based on whatever's going on at the Union Square Greenmarket that day , and baguettes, and loaves of bread you can bring home, including an excellent Seeded Sourdough, offered thoughtfully in large and smaller sizes. Challah makes an appearance sometimes as well.
