Pan de Muerto @ Northgate Market
Día de los Muertos is celebrated November 1 and 2. Family and friends gather to remember those who have died. Pan de muerto is eaten on Día de Muertos, at the gravesite or alternatively, at a domestic altar called an ofrenda. In some regions, it is eaten for months before the official celebration of Dia de los Muertos. The holiday is widely observed in Mexico. I spend the days before it looking for Pan de Muerto. This year I visited Northgate Market. I remember working here out of college as an Assistant Apparel Manger when this was a K-Mart. The lawn and garden center was where Northgate Market now stands.

Panchitas Bakery Golden Hill [Día de los Muertos]
Delicious crunchy, sugary crust topped with little sugar crystals. Firm yet fluffy bread with a light slightly sweet flavor. The first time we met and I tasted you I knew it was love.

You are a flavor explosion in my mouth unequaled anywhere in San Diego. How I love you my sweet concha.
