Bilbao must eat ❗

🍞 Arrese, Bilbao: The Morning Bakery That’ll Make You Swoon (Cloud-Soft Bread Included) Ever had a “meh, let’s just pop in” moment that turns into a food revelation? That’s Arrese in Bilbao. Wandering the streets on a lazy morning, we spotted this little bakery—locals were streaming in, all grabbing the same combo. Curiosity won, and wow, are we glad it did. The star? A humble-looking bread that’s anything but ordinary. Picture this: texture so soft, it’s like tearing into a cloud ☁️. Inside, there’s a swirl of whipped cream 🧁—not heavy or cloying, but airy, like someone folded sunshine into it. One bite, and the fluffy melt-in-your-mouth goodness mixed with that gentle sweetness? The whole family groaned (the good kind). “This is insane,” my sister said through a mouthful. 😋 We couldn’t leave it at one. By the time we left, we’d stuffed a paper bag full of extras—they wrapped each one with care, like handling something precious 📦. No squished pastries here! Family drama? My dad insisted the palmiers (butterfly pastries) were the real MVP. They’re crispy, buttery, sure… but I found them a tad too sweet. Sorry, pops—this bread? It’s in a league of its own. Word to the wise: Arrive hungry. And maybe bring a bigger bag. You’ll want to take a slice (or five) of that cloud bread with you everywhere. 📍 Arrese (Bilbao) #BakeryMagic #SpainEats #BilbaoMornings #PastryPerfection #FoodieFinds
