Looks like a laid-back joint.
Previous tenants at these premises have served Italian, Colombian, and Haitian food, not always making sharp distinctions on the menu, so it's no stunner that although the current staff are Chapines — natives of Guatemala — about half the hot-food menu hails from the (non)neighboring country of Peru. From the extensive display of baked goods, prepared in-house, my two purchases ($2 total) included a concha, a "shell"-shaped pastry with a crusty snowcap that includes sugar (and probably lard); and a turnover filled with melocotón. That's peach, chunky and sweet.
