Two Sweet Finds: Mill Valley & Danville
Small-batch French baking at Le Marais Bakery, then locally run frozen yogurt at Cuppa Yo Danville.
Look beyond the usual checklist and browse for the details: small-batch French baking in Mill Valley, followed here by a neighborhood frozen-yogurt shop in Danville. These are two separate discoveries to keep on your radar, not a walking itinerary.
### Le Marais Bakery — Mill Valley
The detail to notice is the process: this French bakery makes small-batch pastries and croissants over three days with natural levain. French butter, organic farm eggs and long fermentation anchor the baking. Its supplied photographs offer another way to browse, from the croissant display to the light-filled interior and outdoor tables.
### Cuppa Yo Danville — Danville
Here the appeal is making it your own. Founded and operated by local residents the Chans, Cuppa Yo Danville offers self-serve frozen yogurt with a rotating lineup of customizable flavors. The source describes a community-focused gathering place at 730 Camino Ramon; the supplied toppings-bar photograph puts that choose-your-own approach in view.

These additional picks are separate city bookmarks, not stops on the same outing: McDonald's in Bellevue, Washington; Triangle Park in Washington, DC; and Sharks fish and chicken in Washington, DC. The Bellevue stop offers the familiar fast-food lineup, Triangle Park is a small Brightwood Park green space, and Sharks focuses on fried fish and chicken.
