Some of the best places are discovered by accident. Pan Fresco Ole is no exception. My DH "found" PFO taking care of business in Bluffton. With the exception of conchas and bollilo, I'm not really familiar with the wide variety of Mexican pastries out there. My husband brought home a fab selection of pastries and I've been a fan since. Their conchas taste like light, fluffy, lightly sweet clouds of joy. They also make something that I can only describe as a cheesecake cup. It is so delicious, and paired with a hot cup of coffee - heaven. There's also something that's my second favorite thing, next to the cheesecake cup, that my husband says is called something like "mollusk" in Spanish. Whatever it is, I like me that (hey, Cirse...wink, wink)!!!
One thing that took me a while to get used to is that the majority of Mexican sweets are not as sweet as their American counterparts which, actually, is a good thing. It might also be a good thing that there isn't one here in Savannah! read more
