The Locust Street branch of Flying Monkey Patisserie has added banh mi and summer rolls from O Sandwiches to its stock of cupcakes, cookies and other treats. Owner Rebecca Michaels is offering a sweet deal - buy a Vietnamese sandwich or summer rolls and get a cupcake for $1. It’s practically forcing us to eat dessert (not that we ever need to be coerced). The Monkey is also taking orders for holiday desserts. See the menu and details here; order by November 18 to get pies, cakes and other treats in time for Thanksgiving.
