Wanted to check out this place for their $1 egg tarts if you purchase 12 or more, which is a steal in this economy! First time I came around 11:30 and they were sold out. They said would be around 20-30 mins wait and I didn't bother waiting. Came back another day around 10:45 and they just came out fresh out of the oven.
I generally do not like the crust of the egg tart (I'm weird, I know LOL) so I can't comment if it good or not compared to other bakeries, but the eggy part itself was pretty. It's a bit sweeter than I like but hey, for $1, I can't complain.
They also have your traditional Chinese buns along with some specialty buns. I tried two of their newer buns: Red Velvet Strawberry Cream Soft Bun and Cheese Durian Bun - both were so fresh, soft, and not too sweet! I'd definitely get it again. I also got their black sesame loaf, but it was just a few black sesame seed on top and the inside was all red bean paste...I wouldn't get this again as I was hoping it would be black sesame paste.
Their prices were affordable ranging between $2-$5.
The bakery itself is big and has plenty of seating. They have cakes at the front, buns in the middle, and smaller cakes/sandwiches/(cooked food?) in the back.
Service is friendly and they can get quite busy when trying to pay as they only have one person at the front making the drinks, taking order and payment.
Located inside of Bridlewood Mall, it's a bit hidden if you go in from inside the mall, but they have a separate entrance from the outside as well. read more
