Pan Dulce

There's an inexpensive bread shop at the ground floor of the Excelsior Building in the Eastwood City Complex that we tried last Saturday afternoon.  Pan Dulce not only has a wide variety of breads, tarts & pastries, but also has a pasta counter--different noodles and meats to combine with a range of sauces and toppings.  The literal English translation of the term is "Sweet Bread," and this usually refers to the conchas that Mexican bakeries invented.   Reasonably priced at an average of P40 per head for a snack and P150 per head for a meal; I particularly liked their chocolate muffin, which had a semi-crunchy crust and moist interior.  While we were there, Vicky decided to stay at the outdoor patio, and Monique and I spent some time taking pictures of the street scenery.  Nice!
