Just down the street from Katzinger’s Deli, in the heart of the German Village area of Columbus, Ohio, lives Pistacia Vera, where flakey, buttery croissants, decadent Chocolate Bombes, and macarons that melt in your mouth grace the counter.

Disclaimer: This Silent Sunday is a part of a series of posts that I will be doing on restaurants, shops, distilleries and breweries in the Columbus, Ohio, area. I was recently invited to take part in an all-expense paid tour of the city that was organized by Experience Columbus and Columbus Food Adventures. The views on my blog are my own and in no way was I monetarily compensated for writing this entry.

The colors on those macarons are lovely – as is the beautiful blonde chef you captured in action!
Lovely photos. The macarons are my pick… After our recent Japan trip I have definitely gotten into them!
Gorgeous.
This is so much my kind of post I love all of it…
SO beautiful, Brian. Your photos are so thoughtfully shot, so thoughtfully assembled…..I love seeing Sundays through your eyes.
Boston must be awash in great bakeries. I have been enjoying the cookbook from flour lately. GREG
So beautiful, Brian! Wish I was there too.
Looks like you all had so much fun, I can’t wait to read more about it.
Those macarons look OUT OF THIS WORLD. As do the croissants. Please bring it all back to Boston
Love it, Brian… I always love your bakery/pastry photos!
Very pretty!
Love the behind the scenes look at the folks who get the work done. And beautiful work it is.
I’ll take one of everything, thanks.
everything looks delicious, my sweet tooth needs some attention now
Oh, my. I feel compelled to jump in my car and drive to Ohio immediately. Fabulous photos~
Love this Silent Sunday series – my kids love macarons!
Gorgeous pictures! Love the Columbus address…makes me miss Ohio
Brian, I love your work. The images speak volumes!
Their macarons are slightly bigger (which I LOVE) and the pricing is way cheaper (which I also LOVE) at 1.25 dollars a piece. Here in Houston they sell them like $2 .00 to 2.oo+ a piece, which I think is crazy. Thanks for sharing this!
Wow, I love the photo reportage of this place. Looks brilliant and if I lived any closer… I would definitely be paying a visit.
awesome post and photos Brian!
Beautiful photos! Everything looks amazing!
What a wonderful array of goodies. I wouldn’t know where to start!
I’ve been there. I really liked the feel of the place – and their pastries.
I try to go to Pistacia Vera at least every month or two, especially since they rotate macaron flavors…everything I’ve ever had there is just so wonderful.
Wow everything looks amazing. I am only about 3 hours from Columbus, your photos make the drive seem worth it. I hope it get to go there someday!
I just gained fifty pounds from reading this. And honestly…I couldn’t be happier about it. Those photos are amazing!
Gorgeous, as ALWAYS!
