Getting specific

It's probably more trivia than useful information, haha, but hojaldra is actually the pastry used to make those delicious sweet and savory ham and cheese delights as well as their name. If I'm not mistaken, it's similar to puff pastry. You can buy the pastry dough in the supermarket if you want to do some baking.

There is also a little panaderia right on 5th avenue, a few blocks from the bus station. It looks more like a mini-super, but they have pan dulce in the window and more inside the store. Very inexpensive and pretty good if you don't wait until the end of the day to go.
