A couple of days ago as I was leaving the Gringos of David get together, I remembered a panderia that Vicky of Restaurante Mana had told me about. She told me they had the best rolls and bread in David.
Here is a photo of the store front.
I bought orejas and almost every roll and bread [...]

On Tuesday, the last stop I made in Boquete was at the Sugar and Spice shop. It is another of location that many people have told me about and I had not had the opportunity of visiting.

Saturday, while I was taking photos inside of Passarela, I met Hubi. He came in with two covered cake containers with goodies that he and his wife Marggie make. You can mistake Hubi and his German accent for being Panamanian.
I was surprised. I thought I knew every place in David that prepared dulces such as [...]

I have been busy, but I can’t see any evidence of why. I know that this week, I haven’t posted much. Just haven’t had my heart in it. I have been continuing to eat (surprise) and do have some information that may be of interest.

A recent comment reminded me that I hadn’t posted the following photos. I stopped in Mara Pan the other day. This is one of the best pandarias in David. Their cakes are as good as I think you can buy here. They make a cake called Flan Escondido (Hidden Flan) that is really special.

Apparently there is a new place for me to try in Boquete. It is called Sugar & Spice. Had I known about it on Sunday, I would have stopped in. If you get there before me, let me know how it is. Tell them you heard of them on Chiriquí Chatter.

The last stop for the day was the Pasteleria Alemana in Boquete. This is a really neat little place that I always stop at for two things. The first is the strawberry tart with whipped cream. You guessed it. Camera only allowed the photo above, but trust me, buy the tart.
The other thing I always [...]

By the time I got to La Suprema Pandera, I decided to get a little nourishment. I like to stop in there and get one of their orejas. The lady on the left has served me orejas since I moved to Chiriquí.
Today they had fried chicarones. My dad would have liked that. I can [...]

One of the things I really didn’t like about Super Baru was its bread. I thought it was about the worst bread in the world. If I needed bread for the morning, I would just almost do without as opposed to buying the Super Baru bread.
Now El Rey is a different story. They have good [...]
