Still the best bakery I've ever been to! Their tiramisu is the best and I literally think about it…read moreconstantly! Earl grey toast and black sesame toast are also my favorites! The shop is tucked away in the U district past the Lune cafe and near the driving school and a bagel shop. Jie has plenty of seating inside and a bench outside. Staff is quiet and seems to be a family owned business as usually the young woman takes the orders and there will be 1-2 young children/toddlers running around, playing, and laughing. I love the music here and always feel like it's such a calm, homey, and welcoming ambiance. I've stopped by many times for the tea toast and it never disappoints. My favorites are the Earl Grey and Black Sesame. The Earl grey toast tastes so good dipped in a hot peppermint or chamomile tea! The Tiramisu is an absolute must. I've gotten this for my birthday and split it with my man and he loves it too! I think about that yummy top layer and my mouth waters immediately even thinking of this dessert. I actually used to think I disliked Tiramisu as I guess I never had a good one or am very picky as well. Stopping in here just looking at that deliciousness I knew it would be good. Dang delicious! One of the best desserts I've everrrr had and most definitely the best Tiramisu I've had! Just amazing. Yummy. Tasty. You need to try! I've been a loyal customer for over a year now and will continue to be so! Always will recommend Jie!

The Molten chocolate cake is more like a sponge cake cream pie. It is delicious but it has a cream…read morecenter so if you're craving decadent dark chocolate it's not going to satiate the craving. Wish it had dark chocolate ganache in the center, the chocolate cream is amazing though. I also got their pistachio basque cheesecake and their Black Forest cake so will leave feedback on them once I get into it. Service was prompt and I took them to go so didn't get to enjoy the ambiance. It is a good bakery though. I would have been devastated if their cake was terrible as I was really jonesing for a good sweet treat last evening.

Tried this place out for lunch around 12pm on a Thursday. Not bad, a little pricey for a banh mi…read morebut it makes sense for the area. $11 for a beef banh mi or $10 for a pork or chicken one. You can do a combo for $15.50 that comes with a preselected drink and banh mi which is alright. The inside of the shop is a little small, not made for groups to really eat together since it's just a small bar-like table to eat at. So good if you're eating with one person or by yourself. For the banh mi, the bread is okay. Kinda generic. Meat is good though, flavorful, good quality and good amount. I'd come back only because it's the only banh mi shop in the area. For parking, there's just street parking. Around the corner from the Grand Bakery, there were spots open but you do have to pay for parking by the city. For a Thursday afternoon, it's only like $.50 for 45 minutes.

I just ordered an Ube milk tea but it was delicious! I was a bit worried because the picture showed…read morethe ube on top and milk tea on bottom but I am guessing they pre mixed the milk tea for me but I was relieved that it tasted normal and the bubbles were decent too. The shop is small but cute, the best thing about the shop is that the window isn't covered with stickers like most of the restaurants I've been to in seattle. This allowed me to sit at the window and look out into the street. There isn't much of a view but it's kind of nice to just people watch people walking by on the street and just existing while drinking your tea and listening to the Mandarin music playing in the background. The place was empty when I came jn but I got my drink pretty fast right after ordering by the cashier/server. I recommend a stop for sure.

Everything here was so delicious!…read more The mango Rice Krispy was absolutely worth the hype--so good and super addictive, already planning my trip back.

My sister had bought stuff for me to try before and i thought it was good, but nothing exceptional…read more I was in the area today so decided to give it a try in person. It's a small shop but cute. They mostly had cookies and rice krispie and a couple of seasonal items like cakes, cream puffs, etc. I decided to try the mango stick Rice krispie and the strawberry kiwi cake box. The sticky rice was good, but I would just call it a mango rice krispie. I do like the actual mango pieces in there. The strawberry kiwi box was good for those who loves the cream, frosting etc. there was very small amount of actual cake. My husband like this a lot but I was just ok with it. The lady who help me was good at giving me her opinions. Overall, it was good to try.

Though it seems they do offer outdoor seating for when it isn't raining. Despite how busy they were, the service was still good. There were so many choices that it was hard to pick! I was lucky to speak with a regular in line who recommended the ube tart, and it did not disappoint at all. I also got the yuzu cheesecake, which provided a nice citrus balance. They also offer whole cakes, which I think would be perfect for a birthday. I definitely want to come back to try their beverages next time!

I first heard about Kinako and Goma Sweets & Bakes at the Plan C event back in early June, but the…read morelong lines prevented me from scoring on any tasty goods. Clearly a very popular pop up! However, The Homie and I made sure to not miss the event hosted during Saint Bread's happy hour on 7/17/22. Scored on nearby parking, got in line pronto on the deck, and thankfully ordered one of each featured item. Good thing too since I later found out that they sold out in 17 minutes! Seems to be a thing at Seattle area pop ups...get used to lining up early and have patience for some potential instant gratification. But it is so worth it when one's efforts supports family run indie businesses! The items sampled were Iced Milo ($7). Took a sip of The Homie's fave...wow, where have I been all these decades?! My childhood included Bosco, Nesquik, and Hershey's syrup. Glad I bought a tin of Milo from my local FilAm shop in Shoreline! The other two items purchased were Pandan Coconut Butter Mochi ($6) and Calamansi Yuzu Cake Cube ($10). I really liked the presentation. Enjoyed the familiar Filipino flavors of pandan, calamansi, and texture of bibingka! I also greatly appreciate that each delicious treat was not overly sweet. With these treats plus some Saint Bread cookies, we had a nice late afternoon treat al fresco by Portage Bay. Late to the party by nearly 18 months, but happy to savor the awesome goods from Kinako and Goma! Follow them via Instagram for their pop up schedule hosted at various sites.

I got a Thai tea pound cake ($9) and the ube cassava crumble ($7). The Thai tea pound cake was so moist and rich, but not too sweet. The ube cassava crumble was delicious! I had never tried cassava before but the bright colors drew me in. I loved the squishy texture of the cassava cake (almost like mochi) and the crunch of the crumble.
