My Favorite Muffin
In 1988, My Favorite Muffin started with a secret muffin recipe—one that remains a secret to this day. Ask even one of the loyal regulars, and you'll find that they know little about the process behind the bakery's cake-like muffins, beyond the fact that it involves soybean oil instead of butter.
With results this delicious, the bakery can't be blamed for keeping its secrets closely guarded. Baked fresh daily, the muffins come in flavors ranging from cinnamon swirl to chocolate cheesecake. Guests can also opt for a warm, extra-large bagel, though nothing is stopping anybody from dunking their muffin in the caramel-apple cream cheese.
