Pinecrest Bakery - Kendall

The Best Croquetas In Miami, Ranked

"Price Per Croqueta: $1.15 There are nearly as many Pinecrest Bakeries in Miami as there are uninsured drivers. But their flagship on US1 in (obviously) Pinecrest is the most reliable one (and we can’t be held liable if you go to another location). If you like a thick and sticky masa, go to this Pinecrest Bakery and get their jamon croquetas de la casa. They’re long, brown, and super crispy. But the inside is pinker than Miss Piggy’s wardrobe—and packed with just as much ham. As busy as this place gets, it’s a very relaxed bakery where you can sit at a table and eat your croquetas in peace under (of all things) a crystal chandelier.   " - virginia otazo
