"Eating Cross-Legged Bread in an 1862 Bakery In 1862, the Panaderia La Patria (The Homeland Bakery) was established in the mountain town of Morovis. One of the oldest bakeries in the island, La Patria offers a variety of traditional Puerto Rican sweets like flan and quesitos (a pastry filled with cheese whipped with vanilla, eggs, and sugar). But we all know the bakery best for its "pan de la patita echa." ("Echar la pata" is slang and can have various meanings, one of which is to start or throw yourself into something.) This is a kind of lard bread made only in Puerto Rico that looks like it has its legs crossed. Ask them to show your the century-old red oven in which they make their different breads and pastries."

From New York...this was my first time visiting the town of Morovis, Puerto Rico. I went to a bakery called "Panaderia La Patria". It not only has a historic brick oven, but it has a famous fresh baked bread called " La Patita Echá". It was adorable and delicious! Gracias Janet! Also, I am glad I came across Dinelia from the Office of Tourism. She gave me a mini tour of the immediate area. Hasta la próxima visita!

Panadería La Patria is in the lovely pueblo of Morovis and is a historical bakery in ongoing motion since 1862. There they bake <<el pan de la patita echá>>, a bread of a secret recipe they own. They kindly allowed us entrance to see the brick oven in the original brickwork, and explained to us how has the oven changed method of baking over time.

We ordered some pastries 🍰, delish! Their sandwiches 🥪 are made as you wait and worth the wait are delicious. The appearance isn't updated, but with a renovation, they would attract many more customers.

Here you get the famous bread "La Patita echá" which is only made in the town of Morovis. Very nice bread. If you're ever in the neighborhood you should try it.

Good bread and sweets. One of the few places in Puerto Rico in wich you can find the traditional "pan de la patita echa'"("crossed legs bread", for a literal translation) Is named after the shape of the bread. Is crispy in the outside and soft in the inside, and it's delicious.
