Common Bond
cafe & bakery
-------------------------------------------
Nom-Nom is all that comes to our minds when we think about Common Bond.
This place has become pretty popular since they opened; come early or get ready to wait. The three times we have visited this cute cafe, the waits had been between 15-20 minutes each time, but at the end, they had been worthy. This time, once we walked in, we basically stood in line to order our pastries (which are beautifully displayed), then we paid at the counter and sat around the coffee bar which was in the middle of the bakery.
About the service and ambience, no comments!!! we totally loved the customer service and the great vibe at Common Bond. The natural sunlight coming through the windows, the variety of seating options, its pastel decor and its great music are one of the factors that help Common Bond to have a singular ambience. The service was amazing. We noticed how friendly and attentive the staff was with all of the customers. They were paying attention to every single detail.
If you have not visited this adorable bakery, we suggest you to add it to your list. We have not tried any savory dish at Common Bond, but next time we will. Hopefully, they are as good as their pastries.

Chocolate Chip Cookie
-------------------------------------------
One of the best chocolate chip we have had in Houston. It was soft, chunky and delicious. With full of chocolate chunks, this cookie was explosive in its chocolate content.
They also have triple chocolate cookies which are beyond amazing. This time, they were out of those ones, but if you are lucky enough when you visit common bond, we highly recommend you to order both cookies.

Lemon Tart
-------------------------------------------
A deliciously creamy mix of kust enough sweetness and just enough citrus, layered over a thin lemon cake, and encased in crispy crust.
The crust was rather superfluous to the otherwise perfectly balanced flavours and textures of the tart.

Dish: 4.7/5

Passionfruit & Salted Caramel Macarons
-------------------------------------------
Great consistency! Rusty on the outside but fudgy on the inside. Just how it ahould be.
