Ask Marsha

Q. I've just returned for the season from Canada to discover my favorite French bakery on Fort Myers Beach has vanished. I'm an unhappy man without my morning croissant. What happened?

A. Be happy again, mon cheri.

Sucrée Salée has moved off the beach to new, bigger quarters in a Fort Myers mall with easy parking. French baker Stephan Henwood and his American wife, Linda, front-of-the-house manager and bakery interior designer, now enjoy such luxurious spaciousness that they've been able to expand the breakfast and lunch menu of sweet and savory French pastry specialties for you to take home. The clever interior of the new bakery replicates an outdoor French village scene. So while you're checking out the cases laden with fruit- and nut-filled croissants, quiches, sandwiches and fancy desserts, you'll have authentic ambience surrounding you. Box lunches coming soon, and we say oui, oui to that! 15675 McGregor Blvd., The Islands Plaza, Fort Myers. 454-4411. Open daily 7 a.m.-4 p.m.
