SAN FRANCISCO (KRON) -- As the end of 2024 nears, The New York Times released its 26 best dishes of the year. Its staff traveled to more than 30 states nationwide and ate at hundreds of restaurants to determine the list.

Oakland: Bake Sum Bake Sum, located at 3249 Grand Ave., was featured on the list for its "Croissubi."
