Marthas Panaderia

They have a nice selection of pastries at good prices.

Ok — so I’ve lived near this place for the past 12 years, but never stepped inside — until today. I thought I’d see if they had fresh bolillos (husband enjoys them) I’m talking about the sweet, breakfast-​roll type of bolillos. I went in and there were racks of baked goods — the place smelled great. I wasn’t sure if they were just a supplier of baked goods to other stores, or if they sold goods to walk-​in customers. A gentleman came out, but he only spoke Spanish, so he went and got someone who spoke English. It appears you can come in off the street and buy their delicious-​smelling baked goods. The guy gave me a tray with some tongs, and I went and filled the tray with the baked goods I wanted from the racks, and he then rang me up (BTW — 3 sweet bolillos for $ 1 — good deal!) I left with my bolillos and devoured one of them when I got home. Really fresh — so much better than Food 4 Less (their’s aren’t fresh — sorry). I’m saving the other two for breakfast tomorrow — if I can wait that long :). (They sell other baked goods, too. I’ll need to go back and give them a try.)
