Bom Dia, Breakfast Muffins from the Cafe Sintra image

These delicious Portuguese-American muffins are served at the Cafe Sintra, a Portuguese restaurant in Oregon. The owner of the cafe named them Bom Dia, "good morning" in portuguese, because his customers love to order them with their morning coffee.
