Now, if I find out about a place from two different people raving about it during the same night, I usually take it as a sign to visit said place. So, when I got notice that our flight from Mexico City to Puerto Vallarta was delayed an hour and a half, I was excited to schedule in a trip to Panaderia Rosetta for breakfast.
Taking a Uber from Andaz Mexico City Condesa, by Hyatt to Panaderia Rosetta was a breeze. Before long, we were in front and I had my name down for a table for two.
After a very short wait, we were seated outside. With menus in our hands, the excitement washed over me.
The GUAVA ROLL arrived at our table. Immediately, I could see why Panaderia Rosetta was so popular. It was distinct and delicious.
The previous night, during the Evening Taco and Mezcal Walking Tour in Mexico City with Airbnb Experiences, I met Ogden. He absolutely raved about Panaderia Rosetta. But, he especially raved about the hazelnut pesto on the ciabatta sandwich. He reminisced that it was more well rounded in flavor and nutty taste vs the bright bold intense flavors of a traditional pesto with pine nuts.
So of course I was eager to try it.
When the CIABATTA (turkey ham, goat cheese and hazelnut pesto) arrived, it was love at first bite. I immediately tasted what Ogden referenced. The flavor profile was absolutely brilliant.
The hazelnut pesto truly did give the dish a more well rounded, nuttier flavor base. Split between us – as we both were rather still full from the previous night’s tacos – it was delicious.
Our drinks – including my CAPPUCCINO – came out last. With this, I enjoyed sipping my cappuccino while savoring bites of the guava roll.
This was a morning of excellence – Mexico City style – straight out of my dreams.
As the bill was settled, I relished the sights and lingering sounds of my last morning in Mexico City.
