Challah bread - where to buy?

[dbboy]

Does anyone know any bakers who sell Challah bread in London?

Possibly Blackbird Bakery. Grove Vale or Peckham..

Sainsburys ED does it, it's on the top shelf, down from the crumpets. Also, Waitrose and Selfridges. Jewish Bakeries, like Grodzinski, and all, the bakers on Golders Green Rd. Also, the bagel bakery in Spitalfields.

Gail's has them on Fridays. Plain and an almond one.

Sainsburys DKH also sell challah bread rolls in packs of four from the in store bakery.

You should check Gails (http://gailsbread.co.uk/) in dulwich village - I used to live on top of a place called Baker and Space in Queens Park, which used to be run by the same Gail that is now the owner of Gails. They had the best Challah I have ever eaten and that bakery was not only was a bad-ass bread making place but also had a strong jewish connection.

I know they also have it in the bread stall up in the horniman farmer's market.

Blackbird only does one or two so they go quickly. The Sains ones aren't too bad.

as you asked for London recommendations. Brick Lane Beigel Bake. Be surprised if you got it better or cheaper anywhere.

And while you're there have one of their legendary Salt Beef Bagels.

I don't understood the hype about Gail's bread.
