Panem- The Italian Gem In Town.

Have you been to Panem?

This lovely gem perfectly located in the heart of Dublin just right across the Millennium bridge. They survived the economic pressures which ended many others and I am one very loyal fan since like forever , at least 2015.

Like the proud sistah , am all smitten seeing them doing very well while keeping the food standard high and as authentic as ever.

Kudos to the whole family and the dedicated lovely staff!

I watched them grow from a little family ran cafe with limited seating led by ya one and only the Italian godfather, not a mafia but the mastermind who always great you with smiles and warmth. A genuinely lovely man never shy away from cracking some jokes making you feel right at home . Back then , the children would take turn helping out while the mom busy creating her magic at the back.

Now they are much bigger and busier but well staffed.

The pastries, small pizzas and focaccias are freshly made daily and heavenly tasty.

As creature of habit , I always treat myself with double croissants, one apple custard croissant and one almond croissant .

They are big croissants baked to perfection with generous fillings.

Sometimes, I would get their savoury spinach focaccia as well which is also equally fab.

This has been my weekend routine for years and jokingly,I told my friend I have invested a million into their business.

Price wise, above your average croissant but they deserved every coins!

You cant get any better croissants than these in Dublin.

It's money well spent on the perfect authentic premium Italian pastries.

They do amazing ice latte as well which is perfect for summer morning .

Come in early, Saturday morning is the busiest but also the best time to sit down for coffee and watch the city rise into action.

If you are in Dublin, swing by to Panem and enjoy!

Am here!
