Before departing for Mexico, I was looking at my Mexico City neighborhood on Google Maps, and I found a few new restaurants. On Saturday, Alejandro and I tried one of them out for breakfast.
The place has the rather unusual name of "Dulce Madera" (Sweet Wood). It has received good reviews, and it is just a three-minute walk from the apartment.
The restaurant makes its own breads and pastries. I tried something called a "cruffin", a cross between a croissant and a muffin.
It was really good and very rich. You could tell that they used a lot of butter to make it.
We both were intrigued by one of the more unusual items on the menu... a goat cheese omelet cover with a sauce made from beets.
It was very interesting, although I wouldn't necessarily order it again. There are more conventional items on the breakfast menu. I will put "Dulce Madera" on my list of breakfast places to take friends when they come to visit me in Mexico City.
