"Stop by this East Dallas bakery run by Maria Becerra, formerly of Bullion and Flora Street Cafe, and her husband, Ismael Trejo for breakfast or lunch that features fresh-baked croissants, cookies, and loaves. The egg-filled pastries make for a great alternative to a breakfast sandwich, and with its expansion recently there is all the more room to grab a table and relax awhile." - Courtney E. Smith, Rachel Pinn

"Folks in the north side of East Dallas were delighted when this bakery opened so we don’t have to jet all the way over to Greenville Ave. for pastries. This family owned spot makes some of the best croissants and cookies in town, served with a hearty cup of Mexican coffee. It is now reopened after an expansion and ready to serve breakfast and lunch." - Courtney E. Smith

"This East Dallas favorite has re-opened after a renovation that makes it twice as big — so there is a lot more space and more tables for the brunch crew to spread out in. Go for the croissants so buttery and flaky that you’ll leave a mess behind, luscious French toast, sandwiches loaded with lunch meat or meat salads, and some of the best cookies in town." - Courtney E. Smith

"Looking for a moment of intricate perfection for the eyes and mouth? Stop by this East Dallas bakery run by Maria Becerra, formerly of Bullion and Flora Street Cafe, and her husband, Ismael Trejo. The croissants are buttery, the egg-filled pastries make for a great alternative to a breakfast sandwich, and the cookies are thick and soft." - Courtney E. Smith, Rachel Pinn
