A Greek bakery is coming to Kennett Square

Folks seem to be really excited about "Greek From Greece," the new Greek cafe/bakery coming to downtown Kennett Square. I happened to be walking along State Street on Tuesday and spotted its new canopy over the old Portabello's location. Curious as ever, I did some research when I got home, posted a little blurb on Facebook and -- wham! -- dozens of comments and "likes" from people eager to enjoy some baklava and Greek coffee.

Greek From Greece, a franchise founded in 2016, has as its motto "Daily Trips to Greece." According to the website (https://www.gfg-bakery.com/#products), "GFG is the only bakery in which all products are made in Greece. Wheat, olives, corn, tomatoes growing under the Greek sun and the beneficial sea breeze. And, GFG perfectly aligns with the universal shift towards organic, natural ingredients and specific move towards the Mediterranean Diet, as a premier paradigm of healthy, natural eating."

There are four GFGs in New York City, one in Hoboken, N.J., one in Wayne, N.J., and one in Paramus, N.J. I'm not sure when this one will open -- the windows are covered with brown paper and there's a building permit signed by Rusty Drumheller on display.
