It was not my jam but could work for some. They offer real maple syrup from the White family for a $1.00 charge. I do not know if my MAPLE _________ latte had it or not, but it was too legit to quit. Not too sweet either. Clear maple taste. Whole milk requested. Served in a mug with quality java. RATING = A. The interior is country quaint basic and not going overboard but rather erring simple and open without crowding with stuff. The location is great at the bottom of the slope in downtown. APPLE FRITTER with MAPLE GLAZE: -- I would have preferred a plain cake donut or old-fashioned cake with maple glaze, but this was good -- semi-firm -- medium-sized -- moderate amount of maple glaze has authentic color and taste -- not a sugar bomb -- dark color to bread -- not soft inside, medium-soft inside -- up to medium sweet -- not oily or greasy, tastes more on "slightly" healthy style RATING = A- SFOGLIATELLE pastry: -- this clam shell looking pastry is filled with sweet ricotta cheese -- moderate amount of cheese -- lightly sweet -- tasty -- bread is semi-firm -- I am more of a Zeppole fan, but this is good RATING = A They have bags of Ethiopian coffee which is funny because everywhere we go we see Ethiopian coffee for sale lately. The last time was in September in Portland, Oregon.

I walked away with the Tres Leches (3 milk) cake and their Coconut cream tart as well as a slice of pound cake to snack on. My friend had the same coconut cream tart and ordered a bunch of their cookies - neither of us were complaining. I practically inhaled my tres leches cake. The owner is friendly as well. When I asked her which 3 milks did she use for her tres leches cake, I asked because the recipe I use has coconut milk. She said that she can't use coconut milk because "this is Connecticut" which I'm guessing means that even something as bland as coconut milk is probably too exotic for Connecticut WASPs. Still I hope this place sticks around because her offerings are wonderful and Woodbury needs some a dose of exoticness.

I guess I'll have to try coming back some other times on different days to see if there's a difference.

Despite its name, the stars of the show at this bakery aren't the baked goods. The real attractions…read morefor us, at least, are the hot food items. Some of the options on display in the case by the front door: - Empanadas (queso, carne o pollo; around $5 each, I think) -- well fried, well blotted, well filled, and well seasoned. My family eats what I'm sure is an unhealthy volume of empanadas in NYC and elsewhere, from street carts on "up." El Cisne's are some of the best we've had in a long while. - Bolon de verde con chancho (around $13) -- mashed green plantain balls topped with chunks of... "dirty pig." (Ours came with chewy diced chicharrón. :) This was my first time having bolones de verde and they reminded me of mofongo, but with a creamier, softer, moist plantain base. The fellow at the counter convinced me to get ours in platter form with a fried egg and "salad" (curtido with pickled onion and tomato) on the side, which turned out to be a total winner. Although I'd requested scrambled, the egg came sunny side up, in retrospect a better choice. Warm, liquid yolk lacquer over creamy plantains = magical! The curtido was a game changer, the fresh, acidic vegetables a perfect foil to what would have otherwise been an overwhelmingly heavy plate. And an Ecudorian hot sauce served alongside -- fairly liquidy -- was also fantastically good with everything, possibly made in house. - Ecuadorian style tamales, wrapped in green banana leaves (around $5), are available warm at the counter. The innards include from-frozen peas, carrots and green beans, a few slivers of bell peppers, and a balanced, but moderate amount of chicken or pork. The masa is (still) a bit less silky than my favorite versions for what it's worth -- but every tamale maker has their own style, and the overall effect was enjoyable. - Humitas are slightly sweet and a little denser, harder and dryer than what I am familiar with. Again, perhaps a stylistic difference. My Spanish is terrible and certainly the staff are better at English than I am at Spanish. But even if you're not a native Spanish speaker, just have some patience with communications. It'll all turn out fine. =) p.s. Would love to see prices posted by or near the food and/or on an itemized receipt.

ORIGIN: El Cisne (pronounced El - Seez - Neh) is an…read moreEcuadorian bakery named after a city in the Central American country. The bakery opened in fall 2022, and is the product of a family effort -- Jessica Rivera manages, her fiancé, Luis Alvarez, and her father, Meisias Rivera, bake, while her mother instructs how to make Ecuadorian treats. LOCATION: El Cisne is located in a New Milford strip mall. CONCEPT: Once inside, customers can get a taste of Ecuador. Complementing the bakery focus, El Cisne also offers a small grocery with Ecuadorian pantry staples that are hard to find elsewhere, such as dried purple corn on the cob, purple corn flour, and cinnamon sticks. Small bags of salty snacks, such as salted, crunchy broad beans and corn. EXPERIENCE: I never tried Ecuadorian baked goods before, but El Cisne makes it easy to be adventurous, with a beautiful wooden display case from which customers may grab items with tongs. I selected three breads, and was surprised to find at the register that my selection only totaled $4.50. Two of the items were filled with Ecuadorian cheese -- a salty, crumbly cheese that is apparently included in a wide range of dish types. Upon my second visit I came equipped with suggestions from neighbors who are from Ecuador. Dishes not to be missed include the guava-filled rolls, hot chocolate, and Morocho. Morocho, composed of dried corn, milk, sugar, and seasoned with allspice and cinnamon, is a special hot pudding/drink that takes hours to make. In the fall, look out for Colada Morada, a fruity drink associated with Day of the Dead. Nonetheless, there are plenty of familiar options available as well, such as flan, custard-filled pastries, and cakes. El Cisne is a welcome addition, as residents in the vicinity had previously been limited to purchasing cakes baked at grocery stores. TIPS: To catch a sip of Morocho you must arrive in the morning! Pair sweet with savory, such as Morocho with sugar-topped cheese empanada. Looking for something less sweet? Select hot chocolate instead of Morocho. Baked goods are ever-rotating out of ovens, some restocked more frequently than others. I suggest you ask which rolls are the most fresh, as this appears to vary by day and time. The bakery is designed for take out, but there is one cafe table with two chairs available.
