DON CRIOLLO BAKERY & RESTAURANT – Spanish
Saul and Daisy opened Don Criollo on East Hinson Avenue in August 2022. He took the kitchen, she took the bakery, and both set out to cook the food of Arroyo, Puerto Rico. Breakfast starts at six. The sandwich board runs eleven deep, from the tripleta of pork, ham and beefsteak to cubano and media noche. Plates bring carne frita, chicharron de pollo, mofongo, tostones, octopus or shrimp salad. Guava, tamarind and passion fruit juices are poured fresh; tres leches and flan wait in the case. Diners keep mentioning the seasoning and the welcome. Recipes carried straight from the island.
