Emporio Rulli: The North Bay’s Best Bakery

My sweet tooth surrenders – I have finally found the perfect European bakery I’ve been searching for!  And who would’ve guessed that in all of the Bay Area, I found my little gem across the Golden Gate Bridge in the tiny little town of Larkspur? Yes, it is yuppie-ville over
