I was walking my dog when I decided to venture into a mini plaza off of Merced. It was a plaza…read morefilled with either cafes or service stores that didn't allow dogs however, as I was turning around to leave, I spotted a store that I couldn't resist but peer into their window. As I started walking over, the owner immediately opened the door and told me to come in - that dogs were welcome! I entered and my heart skipped a beat. Not only did she have natural food and treats for dogs and cats (imported from the US!) but she also had organic/natural treats for humans too! Among the beautifully arranged goodies she offers, there are a few things that caught my eye. 1. Her simple selection of high-quality chocolate with cacao ranging from 70-100% --she even has cacao nibs!! (I bought the 100% at 1.500 for 100 grams and it is good, albeit sweeter than expected) 2. Natural energy drinks. (I rarely drink energy drinks, but I have taken note for New Years Eve and will stock up!) 3. As I was leaving, her brother walked in with a small canvas bag and started pulling out plastic containers with what he explained was natural yogurt he makes at home. He adds fresh or dried fruit and honey all for the incredible price of 500 pesos!! This is my new go-to snack when I'm in the centro (way better than the yogurt frappes they offer in Paradiso or Starbucks). The Best part of my experience here was by far how friendly the owner and her brother were. They even offered to special order some things for me!! PS if you are a runner I suggest stopping by and talking with the owner she is an avid marathon runner (at age 62!!) and can give you all of her tips for training in the city.
