WHAT I ORDERED: A dozen egg tarts…read more PARKING: Shared parking lot with limited spots INSIDE: Simple shop that's really more for to go orders. Very nice gentleman who runs the shop. As of January 2025, it costs $35 for a dozen. Will need to call ahead to place your order and keep in mind, it's cash only. THE FOODS: Hong Kong style egg tarts that's the right amount of flakiness and buttery goodness. The custard filling is smooth and the perfect sweetness. Go support!

This shop looks like it's seen better days, but they still have the same yummy egg tarts!…read more When I arrived, the door was locked and the shop was empty, even though it was during their opening hours. There's two phone numbers on the door. I called the top one (972-815-7560) which was written more clearly. A lady answered, and we spoke a mix of mediocre Mandarin and mediocre English. (The reviews say they speak Cantonese.) She said my order of a dozen would take 30-35 min, $35, cash only. I set an alarm and napped in the car. After 40 min, I stepped into the store and greeted Dragon Mak (who now appropriately looks decades older than his photo on the wall). As we waited for the egg tarts to finish baking, we chatted in broken Mandarin about how his wife passed away 6 months ago, how much it cost to bury her, how much it cost to purchase his nearby home decades ago, how he used to live in the Houston Chinatown and how affordable it was back in the day... Tl;dr - Scrumptious fresh egg tarts made to order Call to place order for pickup: 972-815-7560 Cash only, no $50 or $100 bills (something about a counterfeit bill scare??) As of 12/2024, $35 a dozen

I was really craving a cupcake on the way home from a funeral, so I stopped by here…read more My word--this was one of the stiffest, driest cupcakes I've ever attempted to eat. And the frosting was so dry that it ended falling off the cupcake in one big clump. I don't think I'll be coming back.

First time visiting this establishment as someone who is new to the area…read more It reminded me of a 'Panaderia' with their varieties of different sweet treats. I came in for the famous Vietnamese iced coffee and was surprised to see so many different options! Before I venture off and try their salted options of their iced coffees, I needed to first try the coffee itself without any modifications. It did not disappoint! Strong and sweet... Just how I like it! My hubby ordered their peach tea. He finished his within seconds, lol refreshing and sweet! We will definitely be back to explore more of the menu! Stop by this establishment and show some support!

I recently visited Big Dash and I'm still thinking about the desserts!…read more The hazelnut baklava tasted just like a Ferrero Rocher -- rich, nutty, chocolatey, and perfectly sweet. Absolutely delicious. The butter cookie roll was soft, buttery, and indulgent without being overwhelming. But the real star was the kinafa. The cheese pull was INSANE , perfectly crispy on the outside, warm and gooey on the inside, and balanced with just the right amount of sweetness. Easily the best thing I tried. Don't walk, run to try their desserts. You won't regret it!

This is a bittersweet review for us to write. As you can see, we posted our first glorious review…read morein 2017 when Bigdash first opened and could not have loved this place more. It was SO special. We haven't been back in many years and not only did that magical original location close, but what we found instead was this monstrosity of a location that felt hyper corporatized and commercial--in other words, soulless. Listen, we don't begrudge them their success. And we were so happy for them when we saw them being mentioned in the NYT a few years ago. But now Bigdash has gone full American--they've expanded to multiple locations, the quality has gone down, and that je-ne-sais-quoi magic is completely gone. We came here yesterday after a stellar meal at Khashoka, excited since it's been so long since our last visit. We walked in (it was freezing) and the whole place looked like a Disney-ified version of the original Big Dash. There was one woman working, and she was very friendly, but what a different experience than mingling with the original owners in the unpretentious cozy ambience. The worst part is that the ice cream is nowhere near as good! The original Arabic ice cream's level of rose water was off and the ice cream's stretchiness felt less organically created. The pistachio was OK. Our daughter got this crazy container of small individual frozen fruit shapes that were covered in chocolate. Those felt cute and special and we liked them all except for the grape. Again, we're happy for Bigdash's success. They deserve it. But we will not be back again because what we loved so much about this place is no longer. Tis the American way, alas! Three stars and sincere best wishes to them.

Partner and I love this place and stop by pretty much every time we are in the area. We've tried a…read morevariety from buns to mousses to cheesecakes to drinks and are generally always satisfied. Expect the sweets to be less sweet than an American bakery (but they are all beautiful and still very yummy). Tonight in particular, partner got a cinnamon roll and bun, and I got a strawberry mousse. We shared a mint chocolate chip frappe. As a huge fan of mint chocolate chip, this frap was amazing and way better than my attempt to make it at Starbucks. Instantly addicted. The mousse is decently sweet and tastes mildly of strawberry cream cheese. It's definitely a popular study spot and we always see college students with their laptops when we are here. Would recommend! I prefer this over 85 degrees.

Sweet Hut is the perfect night studying place with delicious pastries and drinks! My favorites are…read morethe Midnight Lady cake slice, cream puff (SO GOOD!), nutella bun, and the savory buns as well.

The nice gentleman at the counter, took our order and answered our questions. I got the shish tawook and it was delicious. I also ordered a side of hummus and some pita bread which really satisfied the craving I've been having for hummus lately. While we waited for order, we looked around the shop. We bought some baklava and cookies both of which were incredible. When our order was ready we picked it up and checked out at the cashier line.

I was surprised by my family with a cake from Reverie for my 34th birthday, and it was honestly the…read morebest gluten-free and vegan cake I've ever had. I had full access to the entire thing as a second cake was available to everyone else, and I had the entire thing finished off within 2 days because I really couldn't help myself. There were actually multiple textures of cream incorporated into the cake, and it lived up to being a wonderful tres leches even without having any leches! Very impressive. I stopped by on my way out of town to check out their other goodies, but they were understandably closed for the ice storm. I'll be looking forward to checking them out more thoroughly on my next visit to Dallas.
