La Panadería Mexican bakery scores with great chicken milanesa torta sandwich, eye-opening pastries
La Panadería also showed up on Guy Fieri’s “Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives” in 2017, when he called it “a real deal Mexican bakery goin’ old school with their sandwich sourdough and tequila croissants.”
The downtown location has become a line-out-the-door phenomenon, and the La Cantera location is fairly new, so this report comes from the Broadway shop, with a sprawling dining room, a covered patio and the time-honored practice of having the ordering line snake past a pastry case full of croissants, muffins, cinnamon rolls and empanadas.
This sandwich would’ve been good on garden-variety white bread, but the choice of a mahogany-toasted, crunchy-topped loaf made with a specialty wheat called Kamut took it to a higher place. And the side salad was anything but an afterthought, a cheeky variation on the Caesar called the César, with queso fresco, sun-dried tomatoes and the silky spark of avocado-lime dressing. It proved the day’s best sandwich sidekick, outperforming a bowl of thin fideo and an underseasoned black bean soup.
