pandebono, how delicious you are

Take the 7 Train to 82nd Street/Jackson Heights
and pay a visit to La Delicia en Pandebono. The whole street is filled
with great food shops, bakeries and small restaurants.


All sorts of delicious freshly baked Colombian breads in the case.
Yes, I could camp out here all day and try them all.


You can get two pandebono and two cafe con leche for under $5.

My hubby and I shared a delicious treat on our anniversaire weekend: pandebono and cafe con leche at our favorite place in Queens, La Delicia en Pandebono. We discovered this place a few years ago when it was still a check-cashing place with a little pandebono stand on the side. Recently, they eliminated check-cashing altogether and devoted themselves to baking the most delicious Colombian breads and treats full-time. Their pandebono are always fresh and hot and chewy and delicious.

You must pay them a visit if you like the sound of yucca flour and a hint of cheese all mixed up together and cooked into an otherworldly delight. Prices are extremely reasonable. La Delicia pandebono, the largest on 82nd Street (believe me, we have sampled widely), are $1.25 each.
