Pan De Sal Bakeshop and Eatery, NYC

Pandesal galore!

Beef steak: pandesal sandwich stuffing

I am yet to visit in person this Manhattan bake shop and eatery located at 21st Street and Second Avenue.  You see, it was established after I've moved back to the Philippines.  I had discovered it online and was simply enamored by the photos of their pandesal stuffed with typical Pinoy viands and various mouth-watering baked goods.

However, I do intend to make it my first stop once I go back to New York.  In fact, getting a pad somewhere in Union Square would be ideal so I could be near this Filipino bake shop. How delightful that would be.

From what I understand, besides chicken adobo, they offer myriad sumptuous stuffing for their pandesal, such as pate, corned beef, beef steak, white fish salad, and Spanish ham to name a few.

And based on the photo of their chiller filled with assorted Belgian, French and Filipino cakes, pies and various sweet treats, Pan De Sal is a full-pledge high quality bake shop. Wouldn't it be something to spend an afternoon tasting each one while sipping a steaming mug of their LavAzza coffee or iced tea?

Pan De Sal also offers buffets for lunch ($12) and dinner ($15).
