Delicious baked goods and friendly service!



When you step inside, the smell of freshly baked bread will make your mouth water. They have everything, from homemade bread to out-of-this-world cakes. The staff is super friendly and always helps you choose the best. I tried a naturally leavened bread that was the softest and crunchiest thing in the universe, and pastries filled with cream and fresh fruit that left me in heaven. Oh, not to mention how clean and organized everything is. So, if you want the best bread of your life and sweets from another world, this bakery is the answer. I give them 5 stars and a special place in my heart (and my belly)!

I went for dessert because it was recommended to me and ended up bringing home a lot of delicious things.

Accurate and excellent service with very rich and high-quality products... I recommend them... Go check them out...

Afternoon

El Ajicito

Visit time: 2 hours

Try the delicious lomo saltado and the exquisite sour!



Hey, have you heard about El Ajicito? It's a traditional restaurant in Santiago that has been around for more than 10 years. The food is delicious, the service is top-notch, and the atmosphere is very relaxed. You should definitely try their lomo saltado, it's amazing! And don't forget to taste their mouthwatering sour and their tasty sauces with bread, they're the best!

The place has spacious seating but lacks ventilation, so keep that in mind. The dishes are generous, although nothing out of the ordinary, except for the octopus dish, which is worth a try. Just be careful with the complimentary bread, as it can be a bit hard. If you mention it to the waiter, they might get upset. Unfortunately, I got sick for about 2 days after my last visit, so I won't be going back.

But overall, El Ajicito is known for its excellent food and great service. It's one of the best Peruvian restaurants I've been to, and I highly recommend it!
