We visited the establishment three times during our stay in Mexico City…read more
We tried the variety cookies that come in a cellophane bag, kind of like a shortbread cookie, we also tried the peineta de almendras (bear claw), and the orejas ( palmier).. the flavors where very good, the orejas had a nice crispy and crunchy feel on your first bite, it left you with a pleasant buttery taste unlike other traditional bakeries where the orejas leaves you mouth with a greasy feeling, you better go early as the orejas sold out very quick. The attendant was very friendly and helpful when asked to describe some
of the items, oh!! I almost forgot we also got a slice of one of the chocolate cakes "Maracaibo" I believe? It was very good and rich. As for the ambience I would say it is more like a little European boulangerie-patisserie, there isn't any sitting so order to go.
Overall the quality of the products seems very good.. At least what we tried tasted buttery like a good European butter. I would definitely go back on my next trip to the city
