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.

Between Concepcion and David, on the right side of the road as you head toward David, you will find Pandería Santana. I have been planing to stop for some time and returning from Santa Marta yesterday seemed like a good time.

Today they had fried chicarones. My dad would have liked that. I can [...]

The other day when I was filming the parade, some one handed me [...]

Licking my wounds from my temporary setback at ARROCHA, I decided to stop at Panadería Esperanza on my way home. They were just finishing these two cakes that they had baked.

I think I had mentioned that there aren’t many choices to get a good donut in David. I have found two that I like. One was the Panadería Esperanza and this is the other. I used to stop everyday at the Ely next to Oteima and get my donut fix taken care of. This one [...]

I was so depressed that Plaza El Terronal probably won’t open this year that I had to stop into my favorite bakery and have some banana bread. This bakery is the best I have been to. It is small, but everything is great. It is about a block north of the new plaza on the [...]
