This place is usually so good but my most recent trip was a miss. The pandan mousse tasted like it…read morehad been sitting in the refrigerator for a while and didn't taste like much, if anything at all. We also ordered a ube choux and two macarons (vanilla and pistachio). The ube choux was much better, the ube filling actually tastes like ube, which is pretty rare in ube-related food or drink. The choux, however, reminded me of pastry that has been sitting out for a while - kinda hard. The macarons were actually great. Flaky, soft, and the fillings were delicious. Sad that the quality has dropped so much.

I was looking for a small treat in Chinatown and obviously 10000 options came up. However, we…read moredecided on Desseire as an Asian-flavored French techniqued bakery sounded like an excellent option. Its in a less trafficked area of Chinatown and sort of tucked away in a corner of the strip mall. It has a casual pick up and go vibe, with display cases of baked goods and a couple options on the counter (dont miss the caneles). The cashier (potentially also the baker) was friendly and was super patient with us as we were making decisions and then noticing a special and adding extra goods (sorry for making you box and unbox so many times!) Anyways, all the baked goods we got were reasonably priced around $3-4. They also have some larger tiramisu options but we didn't grab any this time. I got a canele, a variety of choux, and some cupcakes. I enjoyed the canele and it had a very nice crust but the center wasn't as custardy as some I've had but regardless I enjoyed it and I also rarely see caneles so it was a nice treat. The choux were the winners for me though, filled with various creams (I got mango, pandan, and pistachio). I really liked the choux pastry and found it light and crisp. The filling was also perfect, light, held its texture and didn't spill out as I was eating it, and perfect level of sweetness for me. I also enjoyed flavor of the cupcakes but I did think they were slightly dense. Overall, this was such a great find and glad we stopped by. It may end up becoming one of my staples to have pastries for the week!

I went on a Sunday, maybe a mistake, but it was supppperrrrr packed with a long line inside. A bit chaotic, but it's worth it to me. I got the che dau trang (sticky rice, black eyed peas, coconut milk). Spectacular!! I asked for the coconut milk at the cashier since they don't have it out with the rest of the desserts. I also ordered a Che Hue (an assortment of jellys, sweeten beans, and shaved ice, condensed milk, and peanuts on top). They pack it with seran wrap so you can transport it easily if you're not eating it immediately.

Honestly, I try not to indulge in sweet desserts for health reasons, but whilst visiting family, my…read moremother couldn't stop raving about this place and how she so enjoyed their desserts so much that she goes back over and over again to buy by the dozens to gift to all her friends..... especially their chocolate panache tarts.... but unfortunately, the day we went to try, they were all sold out by lunch time. So, what we decided to do was to place an order for the chocolate ganache tarts a couple of days later, but while we were here, we'd try their Amandine tart, Sachertorte, and an Eclaire. Wow, I just had a bite of each and....daaaang, they were so so soooo good! So satisfying, so decadent, so next level deliciousness! ... perhaps a little sweet, but not overly so... thoroughly enjoyed just the taste of each. A couple of days later when we finally got to try their chocolate ganache tarts... wow... again! So obviously freshly baked, such wonderful density, flavor, and bite... with a butter cookie textured shell..... absolute heaven, and so difficult to just limit oneself to just one bite, but I managed. I'm sure we'll be back here again during our next visit.

If you want piping hot, fresh egg tarts, this is the place to go in Little Saigon in Houston. Not…read moreonly that, but their mango mochi was so soft, chewy, and full of delicious mango filling with little mango fruit bits. But the egg tarts are the star of the show. Incredibly flaky with a creamy sweet custard filling. Others just don't compare. The guys up front were cordial and shout out to the hard working bakers and staff in the back. The inside is functional and reminiscent of the immigrants who brought this area together and continue to keep this community thriving. Next time we're in Houston we'll have to try their other pastries as well. As others noted, don't forget to bring cash as there is a small credit card fee.

I'm gonna start by saying that I'm pretty picky/particular about egg tarts. I've been meaning to…read moretry this place for a long time. I wanted to know if it lived up to its hype. We finally came around to checking it out and OMG YES. It absolutely is worth the hype. As a lover of egg tarts and someone who is also very particular about it - these have won my heart! I also heard great things about the mango mochi so we couldn't leave without those. Thankfully they still had some in stock. I heard they sell out quickly especially on weekends. Those also lived up to its hype. SO YUMMY! Tastes so fresh including the mangoes. My kiddo who LOVES mango anything loved them so much! My husband also got 2 savory pastries (I forgot what they were called and I forgot to take a picture) and those were yummy too. Perfectly flakey crust just like the egg tarts. We wanted to get sesame balls but they were sold out. Customer service was great. The guy that took our order was very nice. It was pretty busy but he moved through the line quickly. There's some seating inside if you want to eat there. Prices are very reasonable at $2 each for the mochi and egg tarts. The savory pastries were $3. It's located in a shared lot/area. Parking can be tight and limited on a busy weekend day but they have parking right out front for the Eck bakery customers. Also note that if you pay with card it's a 2.5% charge so cash is better if you have it. We didn't but we know now for future. We had a great experience here and will definitely be back. Next time we'll come earlier and get a bigger order and try their other offerings.

He's a chocolate lover so I decided on the Black Forest cake for him which is one of their specialties. I ordered the night before for noon pickup and paid online which was a pretty easy process. I was able to include instructions to write "Happy Birthday Dad!" When I stopped by on a Sunday at noon, thankfully parking wasn't too bad and I snagged a spot easily. Beware parking here at busier times - when I visited on a Saturday at 1:30pm it was mayhem. On entering, I saw an array of desserts and savory items. I decided to also pick up a savory kolache-type pastry (I never got the name of it) and the cake! The employee was quick and helpful - she located the cake, showed me the design and lettering to make sure it was ok before I left. The cake was a huge hit! We loved the light sponge cake with layers of whipped cream which were light and not too sweet. Then layer of cherries was lovely. The fruits on top were fresh and nicely arranged. The appearance was gorgeous as well, with chocolate shavings delicately arranged on the outside. We were not too impressed by the kolache. I was also able to try their pandan cake slice on another visit and loved the flavoring, lightness of the cake and the icing was very tasty. I will definitely be coming back here for more cakes in the not too distant future!

We went with red velvet and cream cheese filling, and the outer layer was buttercream, which was a big plus. It tasted just as good as it looked.
