I heard so many times about café de Tere, until one day finally visit this place with my sister and her friend. The place is very cozy, it´s lovely, clean and open. I orderer trigrillo with coffee and orange juice, everything was very tasty and fresh. The only detail was the chicharron of my tigrillo, it was a little salty but if that crunchy. The rest of food is tasty, and crunch. The best breakfast. If you come to Guayaquil is totally recommended you visit.
