Taken to go for snacks at Xplor, though a medium-wet slice of Tres Leches and one Concha didn't make it past the door, highlights included springy Cake with a thin layer of Pineapple Jam plus Icing while both the Cookie and Oreja were so dry that one might question whether they were leftover from the previous day.

It came with 3 small seasoned potatoes. The macchiato was one of the best I've had in a very long time. There was also a guitar duo singing in beautiful harmonies and playing so skillfully on the guitar. It was a slow morning, sipping my coffee, reading some poetry and enjoying a really good morning. This is such a special place.

Open 8:00am to 8:00pm daily, unlabeled goods in the window happily explained by a man using broken English while two bakers worked in the back, it was from a somewhat limited collection that six items were requested, MigaPlaya's Biscuits small and savory with plenty of layers but not nearly so fluffy as the American version. Anticipating imperfect Viennoiserie considering Playa Del Carmen's humidity, a proper assertion based on soft Croissants bolstered by fillings such as Chocolate and Dulce de Leche, Orejas proved better in terms of texture while leavened Bread topped in Custard and Fruit soft, springy and delicious.

A new-ish contender to Chez Celine at Breakfast, with an air conditioned interior and open air patio, guests can stop by La Brioche beginning at 7:00am daily, the fact that most items cost well below $5USD made more impressive by the degree of craftsmanship implemented in Pastries for 50 pesos. Prone to the same elements that make baking in Quintana Roo a challenge, but faring better with humidity than the likes of Das Brot, Breakfast began with Pan Suisse, the item's popularity in Mexico admittedly quite surprising and at La Brioche better than others while an Almond Croissant is unfortunately doughy without much evidence of lamination. Improving with a Raisin Snail, its spiral protected by Butter harboring plump Fruit, credit is due for the textbook Choux comprising a Paris Brest filled with delicate Cream while a Pecan Tart attests to good ingredients blended without a lot of added sweetness to fill crisp Crust.
