The Cobbler Factory


How can one go wrong at a factory where they crank out cobblers?! Good stuff. As we were driving down Colorado Ave., I stuck my head out the window to get that sexy wind-blown sheep look, when I was suddenly overwhelmed with a powerful buttery aroma which meant we had to be close to the Cobbler Factory. Exciting! We took a left on Catalina and strained to look for a big sign - you'd think a factory would be big right? Wrong! It's a tiny shop that is barely noticeable unless you're looking specifically for it. However, if you just follow your nose you'll easily find it. I'm trying to understand how neighbors deal with smelling such greatness everyday. Anyway, we were happily greated by the owner inside and contemplated the purchase for an entire 3 minutes. Peach. Blueberry. Peach. Blueberry. We finally decided on the Blueberry Cobbler. The owner wrapped it with love and provided a few serving tips - make it pretty and plop some ice cream on it. And that we did, except for the pretty part (no one was watching). In all honesty, I enjoyed the cobbler especially since it wasn't overly sweet but decided that I still prefer crisps over cobblers. That Cobbler Factory is one happy place and will definitely bring a smile to your face.
