From the moment we walked in, the owner and staff were welcoming and full of energy. This establishment attracts a certain population of mostly Cubans. The dessert display was beautiful, everything looked so tempting, and the bakery itself was spotless. What really stood out was how happy the staff seemed; at one point, they even came out from behind the counter to dance. While I was there, the owner was live on TikTok, encouraging people to visit, but he still kept an eye on the customers to make sure everyone was being taken care of. I was offered a panetela borracha on the house, and it was amazing. I ordered a ham & cheese empanada and a cortadito--the empanada was delicious, though the cortadito took a little while to arrive. I also grabbed some milk cream nuggets (cremitas de leche) to go, and they tasted just like the ones my grandmother used to make. Overall, the experience was a very positive one, and I'll definitely be returning for more sweets.

I woke up in Hialeah and counted the days remaining until we sailed for Havana. "Too many," I…read morethought, and, rolling out of bed, continued my hunt for south Florida's best Cuban pastry. After checking Yelp for "pastelito" and "most reviewed" I settled on a popular bakery, BreadMan Miami, which was conveniently, if counter-intuitively, housed in Hialeah. I called for an Uber. My driver, Julian, picked me up, and as we left my hotel, he double-checked my destination and, with solicitude in his voice, asked, "Breadman, hmm? Have you been there before?" I told him "no" and that I was trying to hit a few Cuban bakeries before leaving town, to compare their versions of pastelitos de guayaba y queso. Without criticizing my choice, Julian spoke enthusiastically about Palm Springs Bakery. It wasn't like he was selling, so much as that he seemed lost in a dream of baked delights and was anxious to share his reverie. I had no skin in the game, and before I die, I'll have plenty of chances to fulfill my mission - to sample all of the pastelitos sold in the greater Miami area - so I thought, "Sure, what the hell," and changed my destination to Palm Springs Bakery. When I walked into the shop, I knew it was my kind of place: simple and busy, smelling of yeast and sugar and Maillard reactions, its front lined with cases full of still-warm baked goods that fogged the glass protecting them. I quickly found what I'd come for, and then was tempted by things that I didn't know I wanted, until I saw them. Besides my pastelito, I chose a Venezuelan-style tequeño, which is guava paste and queso blanco wrapped in pastry dough, then fried. And because too much is never enough, I also bought a spongy yellow cone-shaped cake dipped in sugary syrup, called a "capuchino." Julian had come inside with me to pick up a snack. I asked if he knew a nearby spot where we could eat our breakfast in comfort (there being no seating at Palm Spring Bakery), and he suggested that we stop next door at La Viña de Aragon. He said knew the owners, and that they wouldn't mind if we ate there if we ordered some coffee. I agreed. The folks at Aragon were accommodating and their coffee was excellent. More about that place in different review. Palm Springs Bakery's offerings were good, but not great. My pastelito was delicious, tasting of butter and tropical fruit, but its pastry was damp and tough, likely made so by its time in the sauna. The tequeño was nicely-prepared, but it wasn't my favorite thing, as, in my opinion, guava paste didn't help the plainness of the queso blanco, as I'd hoped it might. The morning's treat was the capuchino, which looked delicate but was as dense and sweet as rum baba or your heavy-handed aunt's tres leches. As such, it made a wonderful accompaniment for Aragon's strong cortadito. I should also note that capuchinos contain no coffee. They're called capuchinos because of their resemblance to the hoods worn by Capuchin monks, and their syrup's flavored with cinnamon, lemon, orange, and anisette. You'll find them wherever Cuban pastries are sold. Palm Springs Bakery has been a neighborhood fixture for decades, and, for my money, it's just ok. I think it's one of those places that you love if you grew up loving it. As I've said, I have no skin in the Greater Miami bakery game, so my search for the perfect pastelito continues. ********** BreadMan Miami: https://www.yelp.com/biz/breadman-miami-hialeah-2 La Viña de Aragon: https://www.yelp.com/biz/la-vina-aragon-hialeah

I was in the area and searched for a coffee shop nearby. I got this place as a result and decided…read moreto give it a try and I'm so glad I did! At first I was confused on where it was since the GPS was taking me to like warehouses but then you see it. It's next to a kid party place. I was greeted by two women who were very kind! I ordered an iced coffee and they asked me a couple questions to make sure it is made to my liking, which I appreciated. The place is decorated beautifully! Like a shop you would see in wynwood. Perfect for pictures I would say. At the counter I then saw beautiful cakes and what caught my eye was that they were gluten free. I recently found out I am gluten intolerant and so I asked about them and again, the women were so kind and helpful explaining all of them and the flavors, etc. I ended up ordering two, the carrot cake and the pistachio cake. Both were delicious! The best gluten free cake I've had so far!!! If I had to choose between the two I would say the pistachio one was better but they were both delish. I will say the coffee was average but the cakes and the service really made this visit awesome. Would definitely come back here if I was in the area.

After lunch…read moreelsewhere, my son (12) and I took my wife here, having heard good things and also because we regularly go to Peruvian establishments since my wife is from Arequipa in southern Peru. We have eaten in Peruvian restaurants and cafes all over North America. Here, the flavors were familiar but amazingly well-executed. We had these treats: Lucuma-chocolate cheesecake -- not too sweet, either flavor/layer; this is just a smooth caramel flavor derived from the lucuma fruit plus the real chocolate layers. Lucuma milkshake -- not too sweet, just a creamy caramel-flavor profile again derived from, counterintuitively, a fruit. Arroz con leche / rice pudding -- delicious, creamy, and a little thin compared to the American counterpart (tends to be thicker consistency); this has cinnamon and a little bit of spiced orange. My wife said it reminded her of her mother's arroz con leche. Little box of alfajores -- we didn't try them yet. This place is 10/10 especially if you are a discerning Peruvian food eater.

We ordered the chicken and triple sandwich and both were outstanding. The triple was nice and light, refreshing with the avocado and mayo. The bread was very spongey in a good way, fresh made! My coworker said it was "made with love" The same can be said with the chicken sandwich, the fresh brioche bun elevated the overall. It was a great chicken salad that wasn't too sweet or heavy. The arroz con leche was made with long grain, light cinnamon and a thinner consistency, pretty solid overall. The inside ambience was very nice. Cute decor with plenty of seating. The owner was super nice and told us of their new bowls they have, both chicken and salmon. I will be back to try the coffee!
