If you are in the mood for something sweet, you should check out one of Wenatchee’s best-kept secrets: La Casa del Bolillo. The name means "House of Bread Rolls," and this local bakery specializes in traditional Mexican baked goods. They are famous for their bolillo, a soft and crusty bread that makes the perfect base for authentic tortas.
