It was a very good surprise when I found these little pieces of heaven at the Farmer's Market! Even better when I got home and took my time enjoying my macaroon. The pandan one is my favorite of all, but my fiance and I loved pretty much everything we tried so far. Believe me when I say that you will start buying 2, but will end up going home every time with at least a box. Service is great, they always explain how long we can keep them in the fridge and are happy to answer any questions we have. We will definitely keep buying more!

They offer these ice packs which are genius and a must since these cream puffs will melt and worse, may not taste as great after the drive home. This place is cute and TINY. The ladies who work here are so kind,hard-working and humble about how amazing these puffs are. My favorite is the black sesame one. Of course, there are several other desserts here. Their cheesecake is another favorite of ours. Parking is limited but I've been able to snag a spot. Definitely check this place out.

I'm not a fan of chocolate, but that one was definitely more prominent than the vanilla. The black sesame is the one to get. It was on Jonathan Gold's 99 things to eat in LA before you die. I need to come back to try the other pastries!

I was excited to try this French bakery for the first time, but unfortunately it was a…read moredisappointment. We stopped by this morning, and the pastries we ordered were not fresh at all. They tasted stale, which was surprising for a French bakery. We also ordered the chicken sandwich, and it wasn't good either. It had only a very thin slice of chicken and lacked flavor, making it feel overpriced for what we received. The only positive was that the service was decent and the staff were polite. Unfortunately, the food didn't meet our expectations. This was my first visit, and sadly, it will also be my last.

My husband and I are super into cats, so we really wanted our cake toppers to be cat themed. I found Vicki on yelp and sent her a text with my inspiration, and she went above and beyond!

The final product was so much more amazing and were too incredibly cute! On top of that, the flavors was DELICIOUS. We ordered earl grey and salted caramel, and our guests loved both. Vicki is the best - definitely hire her for all your macaron needs! She is absolutely fantastic, and her work speaks for itself!

My niece wanted mochi for their graduation treat. I tried to…read moresee what was available in SD. I did read about this little spot. It is located inside Mitsuwa Marketplace. They have a lot of very nice pricey packaged goodies(special Japanese chocolate and peach jellies and fancy mochis) in the front area. I ended up near the window displays towards the back. I was eyeing up the cream buns. (red bean, custard, matcha, chocolate) I have never seen these before, but I decided to not get these since they do not contain mochi. Right beside them are the Mochi creams. They had many different flavors, it definitely took me some time to decide. (some are: red bean, mango, green tea, peach yoghurt, apple pie, blueberry yoghurt, strawberry shortcake, choco Banana, white chocolate, chocolate, Black sesame, raspberry) These have the wonderful mochi on the outside with the flavored filling inside with soft sweet white cream in the middle). I will say the mochi on the outside is super delicious, it was chewy and incredibly soft. I have had my fair share of mochi and it's very good here. There were the flavors we got: 1. Black Sesame: 3/5 2. Strawberry Shortcake 4/5 3. Green tea 4/5 4. Red bean 4/5 5. Mango- 5/5 Each piece is not cheap, but I think they are pretty good. They come frozen and you place them in your fridge to thaw. I do think they recommend you eat them within 24 hours. They also do carry mochi ice cream too, but I could not these since they would have melted. I have had mochi ice cream before but not from here, I'll be coming back to try at some point in time. We did try special peach jelly mochies (packaged), they were indeed good but for the price of them, I do not think I'd get them again. (mochi on the outside was incredibly soft especially for it being packaged) Service: 5/5 Ambiance 4/5 Food: 4/5

The staff were still very pleasant and patient with us even though were came around closing time. We purchased the items that were on the tray. The matcha and chocolate mochi donut was one of my faves. Delicious, chewy and packed with chocolate flavor. Had a thick slightly crunchy coating of Chocolate on the mochi donut and a powdering of matcha on top. Bomb! The blueberry donut filled with lemon curd was absolutely divine. So good and the filling was way better than I anticipated. The chocolate croissant was filled with a chocolate creme, loved it so much!. The red bean past donut was not a fave of mine but I also don't enough red bean paste very much to begin with. The other two I didn't get a chance to try but I'm sure they were great as well.

They close at 8:30 and I came in 2 hours before. The pastries leftover were scooched over and the labels did not match entirely what they were. It was difficult to know what I was picking up onto the tray. There was also a small fruit fly or gnat flying around inside the bakery case as well. The icing of the orange donut thing also got stuck to the box and we had to scrape it off... Out of 4 pastries none of them were really that good, it really made me not want to come back. I also ordered a plain iced coffee and the coffee quality is not good at all. Tastes like it was made from a Mr coffee machine at home. Service was friendly. She explained each pastry when we asked what we picked up. Small location inside the market. Parking in the plaza. Restrooms are located within the building.

La Cha x The Bowl currently has a second location in Hawthorne in addition to this flagship location in Torrance. The shop is known for its viral cracking chocolate shell boba cup. [Parking]: Easy parking within the plaza. [Atmosphere]: A very casual setup for this tea shop and customers can place their orders via one of two kiosks. One thing to note is that the tea shop plays fairly loud background music so it is hard to have a conversation unless you are sitting right next to the person you are talking to. [Menu]: Yelp's top highlighted items are Strawberry Matcha W/ Milk Foam, Strawberry Taro Milk Tea, and Caramel Cheese Latte. Other featured items include Popcorn Chicken, Biscoff Shake, and Chicken Teriyaki Bowl. *** Strawberry Matcha Milk Tea (100% sweetness - $6.20): The drink was slightly too sweet for me, but the overall flavor was there. Chicken Teriyaki Bowl (Charbroiled Chicken Teriyaki + comes with white rice, chopped lettuce, macaroni salad and grilled fresh pineapple - $13.90): The bowl was surprisingly better than I had expected. The bowl had a slice of grilled pineapple and decent macaroni salad. I was actually able to split the bowl into two smaller meal portions. It was certainly a lot better than the teriyaki bowl from Flame Broiler. *** A solid 3.5-star for the drink and rice bowl. I personally slightly prefer their rice bowl over their drinks and overall this is a nice neighborhood tea shop to grab a quick meal or get a-okay drinks as there aren't too many tea shop options in this part of Torrance (closer to the city of Carson).

It's a cute little location, and there's free parking in the lot right outside. It is a small lot though, but there's plenty of parking in the area if you can't snag a parking spot in the lot. I will definitely be back very soon, I can't stop thinking about it!!
