La Jarochita Bakery — Restaurant in Passaic

built my first ofrenda this year and came to la jarochita in search of pan de muerto. i have been trying to honor the tradition respectfully and felt that supporting a local mexican business was the right way of doing it.

this is an authentic mexican bakery, i could tell just by walking in. the environment is very homey and welcoming, the ladies that run the front are sweet and informative. one of the women explained to me that you grab a tray and your serve yourself the bread you want and then you take it to the counter.

so i asked for a few opinions and chose a bunch of options. i left with pan de muerto and a bunch of other pastries / bread. it was very affordable!

I drove 25 mins to you guys because you're the best. 5...

Best Mexican bread I have ever had in my life. I drive 9 hours to visit family in passaic and everytime I come I always have to visit this bakery.

Once you take it home put it in the oven for 2 min until its reheated and I'm telling you it's the best....
