The Mayflower Bakery & Cafe was somewhat of a surprise because it does not sound Brazilian. Once you arrive you can see that it is joined to a Brazilian grocery store. The bakery is on the second floor and is larger with more seating than I expected.
The display of sweets is mouthwatering. It was difficult to pick just one. The girl behind the counter was a pleasure to interact with and the service quick overall. Decided to try the South of Brazil sandwich, which I thought was good but nothing special. Could benefit from more meat.
Their cheesecake (I'm thinking it's made with queijo minas based on the taste) with a thick guava sauce on top is exquisite. The cheesecake itself is not very sweet but is complimented well by the guava sauce. I thought the texture was pleasant as well.
By the way, the bathroom was quite clean and smelled as such, which was a nice bonus. read more
