I finally got there early enough in the day to see more of the assortments that they have! Cookies, muffins, pinwheels, cinnamon rolls, fry cakes aka donuts and bread. Lots to choose from! I love that their prices are reasonable and my family loves their glazed and plain fry cakes. I tried their chocolate cream cheese muffin and it was really good! They could probably add some frosting and some sprinkles on top and sell it as a fancy cupcake for way more money the toffee cookie was good too! I will add, I tried their cinnamon roll a while ago and I wasn't the biggest fan. It was big, but didn't have much flavor and the frosting was really meh, I don't know how else to describe it. It wasn't sweet, and our kids actually didn't even want to eat it. ‍ So I'll put that out there, just so people can know what to expect. Honestly, I am loving this place! It's a few minutes away from where we live and when I have cash, this is usually the first place I want to spend it!

I'm married to a man whom was just introduced to both these breads by my family and now he refuses to leave town without a stash large enough to get us by for a month or two (while they both freeze well, nothing compares to a slice of fresh, warm Napolitano bread). The Napolitano bread's crust has just the right amount of flake and chew when it's fresh and the Spatz's bread makes for the perfect piece of toast! We've just run out of the last of our Napolitano and there are no visits to Saginaw in sight. I'll be calling the bakery tomorrow to see if there is any chance at all that they would be willing to ship out of state.

The pork pulled apart into thick strands, it had great texture, some bits of tender fat, some bits of crisped edges. Fantastic stuff. If I wanted to pick nits, I might prefer a smidge more salt and I would have killed for a wedge of lime to squeeze over the whole thing. But the brightness of the salsa rojo did the job nicely of bringing this taco into balance. That salsa had some kick, and was also a delightful compliment to the barbacoa taco, which I suspect was actually barbacoa de cabeza. What a delightful surprise! Rich and meaty, and oh so tender. The tacos might actually suffer from having too much meat in them. I went for three, but two would be more than sufficient. Even one would be a mighty hefty snack. With double corn tortillas, you could even do the clever trick of splitting one taco into two... but then you risk the dreaded tortilla break. While I was looking forward to the lengua, that was the least exciting of them all. The tongue was fattier than I was accustomed to eating, and it was lacking that deep beefy flavor I adore. Had there been some lime, and perhaps a greater helping of onions and cilantro, it would have helped to lighten those bites. But so it goes. Not every taqueria / bakery does everything well. Oh yeah... do not sleep on the chicharon on the counter! Those are sold by the pound. I grabbed three pieces, and they were perfect for snacking on while my tacos were being made. In fact, they may be the reason I wasn't able to get through that third taco. So crisp. So savory. So juicy with fat. So satisfying to chew. Marvelous stuff. Just make sure to limit yourself to what you can eat in the moment, they are best when warm and fresh! All of this in Saginaw? What an unexpected treat! Thank you Yelp for helping me find a respite from my responsibilities that brought me up to this town for the day. I wish I lived closer, but if I'm back in the area, I'm coming back for carnitas and chicharon. No doubt!
