    This bakery is incredible. We ordered treats and coffee for 400 people and then needed to make a last minute change. They were extremely adaptable and wonderful to work with and everyone loved the breads. We will definitely order from them again for any events we host.

    By far one of the best if not the best bakery I have been to- their bread is always fresh- even the next day! One of my favorite things is the "canasta" which is a preboxed (yet still stays fresh) mini pan dulces - they're perfect for sampling different flavors at an event or to take the office. They also have delicious cafe de olla! I called last week to place an order for pick up in the morning (on my way to work) and the service to take the order was efficient and she answered all my questions and the order was ready even when I arrived 5 minutes early. You will not be disappointed.

    I love old restaurants. In this case, an old "classic" Los Angeles bakery, It's been around since 1949. I always noticed while grabbing food in East LA, but the crowds looked intimidating. I visited on a week day evening where I found parking right in front of the bakery. I am constantly tasting conchas and wanted to taste their conchas. You fall in line and tell a lady what you'd like. Once I got to the counter I asked what do people order here? She told me: "mantequilla" I knew she meant the buttery Mexican croissant. What you'll want to order from this long standing Mexican panaderia is the "cuerno de mantequilla." This piece of pan dulce is heavy unlike the French croissant. I assume it's because of all the butter in this pan dulce. It heavy, buttery, slightly sweet, and slightly crunchy on the edges. I'd skip the conchas as I've tasted better. The rice pudding is also medicore. You can find better rice pudding making it home or picking up the freshly made ones at Vallarta. They ran out of champurrado so I'm assuming that's popular too. This is essential LA! Go support our old restaurants and bakery and let's keep them alive!
