Pan del Barrio Pop Up Bakery in Barrio Logan Offers Organic Bread | Eater San Diego

"Operating as a cottage bakery pop-up in Barrio Logan, Pan del Barrio—founded by neighborhood resident and professional baker Amanda Estrella—brings handmade, naturally-leavened bread made with organic ingredients to Logan Avenue during the weekly Walk the Block events each Saturday. I found a range of offerings including loaves of sourdough, brioche, baguettes, scones, and plant-based Mexican conchas, and appreciate that Estrella runs a sliding scale so anyone can access quality bread regardless of income while still providing regular retail price points and an option to donate. A graduate of the San Diego Art Institute’s culinary school with years of experience in San Diego and Los Angeles kitchens and bakeries, she hopes to establish a permanent outpost on Logan Avenue that would include a community flour mill and fresh spring water refill station; for pop-up times and locations she posts updates on Instagram." - Mario A.
