I LOVE AVIK, opens 7am early to late 10pm. clean + quiet ambiance. kind staff, very communicating and outgoing. great prices.
anything pistachio creme is usually $8-$10 but this crossaint was $5.25!! maybe better if heated up but very nutty, slightly filled sliver of creme. average crossaint the matcha jasmine cookie ($3.25) was highly rec on yelp and ITS THE BEST!! not grassy/over baked flavor like most matcha desserts. it's light, milky, with a blend of butter and floral jasmine. unique cookie!! i was VERY DISAPPOINTED in the dubai choc cookie. priciest. not crispy, chewy, or soft cookie. the bottom was like a bed of pressed pistachios. the crispy kataifi + pistachio filling was small and NOT CRISPY and made everything a soggy experience. was so excited for this. DO NOT GET THIS. a better idea might've been to use the pistachio/kataifi filling as a topping.
still id praise this store overall. other asian assortment pastries available. matcha, black sesame, pistachio, mochi, ube, pandan etc read more
