Upon entering this simple but warm restaurant, you cannot miss the heavenly smell of baked bread. When we met the owner and chef, Esberanza, on a recent visit, she and her niece were eager to tell us their family story. Apparently, Esbranza and her sister, who is a co-owner, married two brothers, who they met decades ago at Roseland Ballroom. Originally, they had taken this space for Esberanza to work on her custom-made lingerie for Victoria Secret, Baby Phat and her own line called Epy, but she tired of this after many years in the business, and decided to pursue her other passion – food. Fortunate for us, she is now sharing her talents in this quaint restaurant.
