"Mexico City’s Panadería Rosetta may be widely known for its acclaimed rol de guayaba, or guava pastry, but when October hits, it’s all about the pan de muerto, or bread of the dead, which is prepared each Día de Muertos. This bakery, opened in 2012, sells between 160 and 500 pan de muerto daily during the season that lasts between October 1 and November 3. The bakery uses orange blossom water in its recipe, giving the bread its characteristic aroma and flavor. In 2019, Panadería Rosetta introduced a new creation: bread of the dead mixed with totomoxtle, or corn ash, resulting in a striking, all-black pan de muerto. The bakery also offers a new pan de muerto recipe made with amaranth and bread made with quelites." - Kisai Ponce
"Rosetta is a beautiful restaurant inside a townhouse, with a menu that’s predominantly Italian with a Mexican flair. Expect things like pillowy ricotta-stuffed ravioli covered in a creamy lemon sauce, and tagliatelle punched up with some chile de árbol. Our favorite time to be here is lunch when the room fills with light, but if you’re looking to enjoy a romantic night out, dinner at Rosetta should be at the top of your list. (And yes, you should definitely go to Panadería Rosetta for pastries across the street.)" - guillaume guevara

"This place has been one of my favorites since it opened in 2013. All of their pastries are handmade with a secret leaven recipe created by chef Elena Reygadas. Located in an authentic 1900s building; the interior design retains the original floor and wall decorations. Stop by for an incredible coffee with chocolate or visit the first Rosetta in Colonia Roma for a meal, open since 2010." - Arlette Go
"If you're struggling to find Panaderia Rosetta, just look for the line—it's always wrapped around the block. And for good reason. This tiny cafe/bakery across from the main Rosetta restaurant serves fantastic coffee and pastries (the guava pastry has brought us back to life many times after a long night) in a welcoming little space you could hang out in all morning. Come weekends it becomes sort of a mob scene, but they have another location in Roma where crowds are a bit more manageable." - Brant Cox
