Mexican pastries
i went walking around Pomona with a friend two weeks ago when we found this mexican bakery called Mercanera or something like that. i wish i had a camera on me.. there were cookies and pastries from floor to ceiling all along one side of the store. we stopped in to share a guava turnover, and a plastic cupful of crema fresa (sp) which turned out to be a rich mixture of yogurt and heavy cream (i think) with diced ripe srawberries mixed in. it was smooth creamy fruity death. the turnover turned out to be really flaky and tasty, and at only 45 cents each, so we went back for more! I ended up buying up all sorts of pastries i don't know the names of to bring to friends' places. forget the asian traditional fruit. dunno exact address, but it's across the street from the Washington Mutual on the corner of Towne and Third. they also sell tamales and some really old looking chicharrones.
