Tiny things are cute!
They are also manageable. I visited the Biscuit Factory based on two recommendations. One from a friend who enjoyed their cup of coffee, and another which recommended the tiny cookies that kids love!
It am passing on the tip to you
Little cookies help girls believe in faeries
There are little treats that range in price from 10 cents to 50 cents. This gives kids the joy of choosing a few of them, which they really like doing!
Happy Children = Content Mothers
The locations are small, but there is enough space to hang out for a bit, get the kids their sugar fix and for the adults to enjoy your own.
My Cap
Of course I had a capuccino. Im a simple person with predictable needs. This was not a Coffee Nazi cap, but it was sweet, and devoid of anything unpleasant at all. A little like some of the better raised ladies I know. The only criticism it got from this ring of coffee snobs, was that there was not a stronger coffee flavor. It is my opinion that this is a perfect cap for most moms out with kids. Not everyone is looking for an episode of “Iron Barista” everytime they drink a cup. I am. But I have come to accept that most people are not. Mostly.
Nic-Nacs as well
The nice little shelf of goods makes it a good spot to bring a visitor too. You can have a glass of wine, coffee, cookies, chat, and leave with a nice candle to take home. I recommend a stop, if you like this sort of “conversation and a cookie” habit. I do, and my daughter could not have been happier.

Nanelle, are you going to give us a hint as to where this is or is the first clue in a scavenger hunt? Have you found Caminito Choco and/or Bistro Rustico yet? If not, I'll trade ya…two for one.

OKOK I'll tell. There is one small location in the Escalon just off Mirador up the hill from the world trade center. (89 and Mirador). The slightly larger location (still very small) is in Antiguo Cuscatlan on the main street in what I would call a strip mall across from Sol Azteca. I do not know the name of the street! I was not driving, just staring off into space.

Thanks, Nanelle, I had no idea that this business even existed. BTW, I found an ad in today's La Prensa Grafica for "pollitos" for sale. It says: "GALLINA INDIA MEJORADA****POLLITOS PARA PIE DE CRIA 78560240. Good luck.

Hey Nanelle, now that you mention that you have at El Mirador, have you been at “La Fabbrica di Gelato”? They have a huge sign less than a block away from the Biscuit Factory that has an enormous arrow pointing the location. I bet your little girl would love it! They have the cutest location and lots of tasty flavors. Highly recommended! (http://lafabbricadigelato.com/ )

EXCELLENT NANELLE! I enjoy going to Biscuit too with my little one… he loves the mini cones with “turron” filling…
