History

Established in 2010.

My family has been in the food business since the early 60’s when my father in law opened the first latin supermarket. My brother in law was the owner of the Luis Galindo Latin American Restaurant at 898 SW 57 Ave for several years until he passed away and my husband took over. We now have two other locations on Coral Way and 107 and the new location on Sunset and 96 where we not only have the restaurant but a lounge that has full liquor and music. We wanted to make the bakery a place where you can come in and feel at home with really good baked goods made in house and with no preservatives or fillers. My daughter has a very discerning palate and the food here shows that. We not only have the usual bakery goods but she has incorporated lunch specials that we have all day. And we also have full breakfast daily.
