Grace makes delicious bakery goods! Her banana chocolate chip mini-muffins are the best I've ever had (compared to regular muffins, not just GF!) They absolutely do not taste gluten-free and are addictive. I also enjoy her challahs for Jewish High Holidays and Shabbat (special order a day or more ahead of time.) THANKS GRACE!!

Her real name is Grace Nguyen, lovingly called Gracie Jones as a nickname... I would expect nothing less than PA online and their inexperienced writers to get this wrong and repeatedly reference Jones throughout the article. Especially since PA online has posted about her before and used her correct and proper name. Its confusing at the least.
I would suggest an edit and correction...
Sorry not sorry, just a fan with an opinion.

Gracie is an absolute gem to Palo Alto's food scene! Her lunch menus at the bake shop are consistently delicious (much tastier than those at Asian Box, in my opinion), and her baked goods are the best gluten free items I've tasted. They are always super fresh and contain top quality ingredients. The banh mi baguette-like bread is second to none. If you're not told that it's gluten free, you wouldn't know by tasting. I love that she's always changing her menu - it adds variety and interest. Gracie herself is a humble perfectionist, remembers her customers' favorites, and will tweak recipes for them. I'm excited to see what comes out of that test kitchen, and I hope that she will incorporate some of the test kitchen lunches to Asian Box's menu.
