Food Scene

Azucar is a Cuban-style coffee, bakery and cafe with a French twist. It is only a 10-15 minute walk from the Cottage. Coffee, cookies, baked goods, desserts, cakes, and sandwiches are all good. My favorites include the raspberry passion fruit scone and the cubano sandwich (mwa!). 4820 Newport Ave San Diego, California (619) 523-2020
