MMM to the fried chicken sandwich, Bakesale Betty's most popular choice among all the other great baked goods. I've been to Bakesale Betty's a couple times now and everytime there's always a long line (pretty much anytime of the day till closing) around two-three store lengths of people waiting to get their freshly baked meal. Although the line seems pretty long, it's always moving forward and waiting time is actually not so bad. Alison Bakarat, a cook who grew up from Australia, moved to California and opened up Bakesale Betty with recipes she's developed since she was a child baking at home. She can be easily distinguished from the other workers with her bright blue hair and some times serving customers in line by taking orders for those waiting outside the store. The menu consists of some regular items that are written in black pen on the window outside the shop of the current daily menu. Always sold is the famous fried chicken sandwich and the amazing strawberry shortcake that's piled with a huge portion of sliced and sweet strawberries. Other notable items are the chicken pot pie, pies, lemon ice and beef sandwich. Although the shop is mainly the kitchen and register, outside seating is accommodated. However, the seating area does not feature your normal round or rectangular tables, instead people eat off laid-out, colorful iron boards, giving the home feel of Betty's traditional home baking. The price range is between $5-$12 a person, and the meal is fairly portioned to fill you up. However, do not plan on stopping by the place on Mondays because it is regularly closed.
