Café Colonia is one of my favorite pastry shops downtown. Their two different cafes on Mac Iver…read moreremind me of Hansel and Gretle's home (or something you would find in the Swiss Alpes). Its wooden roof, large windows and warm interior is especially enticing, convincing you to come in, sit down and drink a cup of coffee with a delicious one of their pastries. The women who work there are super friendly, and the outfits they wear also go with the theme of the cafe. They are quick to help you pick between the many different options and are quick at serving it - even during the busy lunch or once hour. I recommend their buttercream vanilla cake (the frosting is thick and very buttery). Also, they have a delicious lucuma cake that makes my mouth water just thinking about it - their frosting is my favorite part of the cake and I usually eat it by the finger-full. However, my all time favorite is their chocolate cake (in fact, after the Chile-Brazil game, I walked over and picked one up for myself to drown my sorrows -- it is that good!). The cake itself is moist and the chocolate mousse in the middle gives it the perfect chocolatey texture and taste to satisfy even the most passionate chocolate lover. Their cakes are perfect to order for birthdays (call before to order ahead of time and get it personalized) They also have mini personal cakes (that are fairly cheap: $1.700/each) they are great to pick up quickly to let someone know you were thinking about them or better yet, a personal treat for yourself!

They offer thin crust pizza by the slice and last time I went it was only about 1 mil pesos a piece. They always have a selection of pizza ready, or you can wait for their fresh ones to come out of the oven. The dough is nice and crunchy, the toppings are good, nothing too special. You can take a seat inside or enjoy yourself on their little street patio. Or if you want to avoid being in public grab a slice or two to go. Verace is always open late as it is in such a popular part of Santiago. They also serve beer to enjoy with your food. The service is friendly and the atmosphere is piola (chill).
