ALUXES BAKERY

Av. Matamoros
Isla Mujeres
Mexico

Open Daily Except Tuesday

They know my order and are kind enough to not mock my Spanish. "Dos Banana Bread, por favor." Aluxes banana bread is baked fresh each morning. Two or three variations - plain, coconut topped, nut topped or with chocolate chips.

The starburst pastries are cinnamon rolls -heated up to order. Their brownies are a great way to end the day, as are their chocolate chip cookes - get the hard ones from the fridge.

Coffees, espresso and espress drinks. Sodas. And for the insufferably Americano, Starbuck's in a can.

Good technical knowledge too. I heard one of the owners discuss the merits of baking with brown versus white sugar with a customers.
