Description
Operating as a straightforward counter-serve spot best suited for takeout, the bakery serves Cuban-style sandwiches alongside its sweet offerings. Cake slices here are cut into triangles to maximize the frosting at the back. While the cakes and tres leches are popular choices, other desserts receive mixed reviews; visitors note occasional inconsistency in freshness, pointing to dry dulce de leche or day-old rice pudding.
