There is a panaderia in Villa Corona where you can watch the young baker using an oven much like the one you describe. My wife asked him to bake her some traditional loaves of bread, drawing pictures on his flour dusted work table.

What a shame that the young people do not want to learn to make bread like this. Me encantan tus crónicas de lugares y comida en fotografías.

I spent my adolescent years in the '60's in Nicaragua, and the maid would go to the corner bodega and buy fresh baked rolls, sweet butter and a type of cheese called 'cuajada' and this with cafe con leche and refried beans was my breakfast before going to school. Incredible hot fresh breads and th butter was also freshly churned.

Perhaps you need more exposure to the better breads and bakeries in Mexico. I can list a few, but not here.<br /><br />Panaderia La Tradicional mainly makes the unsweet bolillo.
