Look Who’s DoingItLocal

Jun 13, 2014 Stephen Krauchick

I had the real pleasure of meeting Marlon aka Marlon the Baker.  He has two bakeries, one at 1209 East Main Street in Bridgeport and the other at 1400 Boston Post Road in Milford.  He also runs a food truck located outside St. Vincent's Hospital.  A real success story.  Just a few short years ago he was the chef at Christian Heritage School in Trumbull.  I haven't had a chance to try his food but I'm told it is the freshest in town.  He is thinking of advertising with us to show you his masterpieces.  How about some likes for Marlon?!!
