Susina Bakery is one of my go-to places for small sweets, coffee, and conversation. Everyone who I’ve taken here has instantly fell in love with the place as well. The location is convenient and opens pretty late.
..and I always order the mixed berry bread pudding and/or the berry blossom cake…with black coffee.. yum.

Remember Johnny Depp’s character, Agent Sands, in Once Upon a Time in Mexico? Well, in the movie and in practically every other scene, he was found eating puerco pibil. He was obsessed with the dish, even going so far as to kill the chef if he made it too well….

Chef Centina of Chichen Itza can take solace then that Agent Sands was only a fictional character because his pibil is AMAZING.

Seriously, one of my top 5 dishes.
You know what’s cool? The Los Angeles Times has the recipe. One of these days, I will make it myself.
