Do You Know Where I Can Find Crispy Borek In Chicago?

from In the Loop with Sasha-Ann Simons

The City Fresh Market opened in 2004 to serve the Yugoslavian community with grocery items that were hard to find. “The desserts were a big reason my family would make the trip to the store when I was a kid,” says one of the managers. Reset tries some of the offerings – from borek to slices of dobos torte – and explores the role grocery store bakeries play in the community with WBEZ producers Lynnea Domienik and Cianna Graves, and the City Fresh Market manager Amina Krlicevic.
