Since its establishment in 1916, Mendl's has been among the most celebrated patisseries in Nebelsbad and Zubrowska at large. The bakery was created by current owner and head pastry chef Herr Mendel's great-great-great-grandfather, who studied the art of pastry making and decorating at a cut-throat culinary school in Strasbourg, France. The shop quickly became popularized for its decadent and ornate artisanal pastries, which have been declared "the most exquisite and delectable in all of Zubrowska" (The Nebelsbad Journal).
