Carrie ate here

Last week I was on Bleecker Street in the Village when I noticed a long line of people standing outside this bakery. I wondered what's so special about this place? Their food must be really good! One person would come out and the enforcer at the door would only let one person in. I looked in the window and the pastries seemed quite ordinary. Well since this place has drawn such a crowd, I figured I'd place it in my memory bank and come back at a time when there was no line to try their wares.

A few days later at work I was reading another blog and I found out why this place was so popular. Evidently an episode of Sex and the City was filmed here and Carrie ate a cupcake from Magnolia. Ever since that episode aired, this place has been swamped with brain dead show followers. People can be such sheep at times. What do they get out of this? Am I missing something? Now I'm considerably less likely to try this place. But what if their stuff is really good? I'm not one to miss out on a good pastry. I am so conflicted.
