Almost Paradise...actually it was paradise!…read more Great ice cream flavors, wonderful customer service, and easy to get too! Stopped by a little before 6pm on a Friday evening and placed our order with a very friendly gentleman who explained the process We tried the following in pint sizes: Cookie Dough Cake Batter Strawberry Lemonade Sorbet Bourbon pecan pie Chocolate brownie All were delicious and freshly packed! I especially loved the cake batter and the strawberry lemonade sorbet! Can't wait to be back in the area to get more and try some different flavors.

Came by for breakfast this morning. The honey chicken biscuit is AMAZING! Think CFA but wayyyy…read morebetter. The biscuit was so moist and not dry at all. I just wish there was a bigger piece of chicken. They do serve Starbucks coffee here, but they also have some fun flavors to add to it like brown sugar! Service was quick, which is exactly what I needed since I was picking up breakfast before heading into work. The star of the show was the English toffee cookie. I ordered one so I could have it as a little dessert for lunch later and it was incredible. I could eat 87 of those cookies.

The tiramisu wasn't for me though, too heavy. I also tried the fresh mint lemonade, but it tasted more like a store bought mix with a few mint leaves tossed in. Service was fast! Staff was nice and helpful! Parking is plentiful here, which is a huge plus. It's a great spot to hang out with friends, relaxed vibe, good for catching up over cake and drinks. Also, don't forget to download their app before you go, you get freebies and discounts! Definitely worth checking out.

First things first: clearly the camera did not eat first here, and honestly, that tells you…read moreeverything you need to know. We tried three items: the red velvet cake, the mocha cake, and an apple pastry (not sure of the exact name, but it reminded me of an apple turnover/empanada). Let's start with the red velvet cake, so good. Moist, flavorful, and honestly better than I expected. Red velvet is one of those cakes that's easy to mess up, but they executed it perfectly. What impressed me even more is that we bought it right before closing, didn't eat it immediately, and it still tasted amazing hours later even after being refrigerated. The mocha cake was well-made, soft, spongy, and clearly high quality, but it just wasn't for me. It has a strong coffee flavor, so if you're a coffee person, you'll probably love it. For me, it was about a 6/10. Now the real star: the apple pastry. This was everything. Perfectly flaky, lightly crisp on the outside, and filled with fresh, flavorful apples. It melted in your mouth! could've easily eaten multiples of these!! Service was also a highlight. Even though we came in right before closing, the staff was kind, patient, and efficient. Nothing felt rushed, which I really appreciated. The shop itself is cute and quaint. Perfect for a quick stop or a casual treat. Overall, Paris Baguette delivered. Some items may come down to personal preference, but the quality is there. I'd absolutely go back, especially for that red velvet cake and the apple pastry . Sidenote: they also have candles & birthday decor for purchase!

We were greeted right away when we entered. The lady asked us if we were looking for anything specific. Desserts we say. She pointed out her array of fresh desserts. This market is clean and well stocked with Thai staples, and the desserts is just the gravy on top. We picked up Lod Chong and a box of taro pastries. I've never bought such a large container of Lod Chong like this, but no worries we got to enjoy it for 3 days in a row. Oh and btw the taro pastries were soooo good. Flaky, soft, taro-y and not too sweet. We had a positive first experience here and will definitely return for more desserts.

This place is a delight and will now be my preferred bakery spot for breads or a last minute…read moredessert need! The desserts and cakes are gorgeous. They have everything from small bites like cookies and pastries to full size cakes & tarts. They also have single serve slices of some of their cakes like the chocolate mousse cake. We went for breakfast sandwiches and tried both of the base bread options. The snowflake bread was soft and pillowy (my favorite) and the brotchen bread was slightly crisper & a little bit saltier, also amazing. Eggs are fluffy and a great portion size. Added cheese to each and smoked bacon. A delightful breakfast treat. On the way out, I got a baguette for a last minute appetizer need. It was so soft and freshly baked (and big!). I'm going back today for more fresh bread. There's also plenty to shop for like mustards, jams, cheese and charcuterie, grab and go items, and beverages. This place has summer chalet vibes & is very upbeat and friendly. Lines can get long during typical busy hours, so it's not super quick if you're in a rush. Great place to come relax.

TLDR: Great quality and unique flavors, especially the Thai tea and banana espresso bingsuu, but…read morethe higher prices may make this more of an occasional treat. Soricha really surprised me with the quality! You can tell they're passionate about their craft, as every item feels thoughtfully prepared. I also loved the cute shelf featuring their personal collection of teacups, which added a nice touch to the space. They also had cute art around. The bingsu is definitely shareable, both of the bingsuus we got were rich in flavor and came with generous toppings. The sparkling coffee, however, wasn't quite as sparkly as I expected The injeolmi latte was a little disappointing because it doesn't come with espresso, which I didn't realize when ordering. I ended up paying an additional $2.20 for espresso. That said, I would recommend adding it because it really helped round out the drink. The server was quick to bring it out after I asked about the lack of coffee. My biggest hesitation is the price. The iced latte came out to around $12 after tax and tip, so I'll probably only come back occasionally. Still, the unique flavor combinations and overall quality might be enough to bring me back for another treat.

I was excited to have the chance to check out Cereal Bar at Springfield Mall after seeing a video…read moreabout them on IG, but unfortunately... They were closed when I stopped by between 11a-12p on a Saturday even though their posted hours said they open at 11am. There was nothing there that said they were closed for the day, so because I can't trust what their actual hours are I have to give them a 1 star for inconsistency. Besides the fact that they weren't open during their stated hours of operation, they do offer a ton of unique and well known cereals, along with a bunch of healthier options to choose from.

We will go out of our way to make this a regular stop whenever traveling in the region. Thank you for a perfect, delicious, refreshing treat. I highly recommend giving Emily's a try.
