This is the best place in Chinatown. Everything is amazing, from the jasmine pink lemonade to the bacon and cheese bread. I try to make a trip everytime I'm nearby.

I purchased a plain “sweet bun” but there was literally a piece of candy inside… Ive gotten this bread before and it doesnt come with candy. Im disgusted.

Pineapple buns with filling are quite good. Other pastries I got were OK but nothing special, like their egg custard tart and red bean paste buns. Their buns are about $2-3 each.

I had a custom cake made by Bao Bao and the process was very smooth and the cake was delicious! It was a cake with a Totoro theme.

We had this cake today for a friend’s son Birthday. It is so pretty that the parents didn’t even want to cut it!! Everyone got a piece and wanted round 2. Delicious cake!

Cream puffs are the best! Brown sugar boba and mango cream are so light and fluffy!

Another good bakery in Chinatown. I tried the coconut cream bun, pineapple bun and chocolate swiss roll cake and they were all great. Staff was friendly and everything came out to less than $10. Did not try the meat filling buns as I prefer them when they are kept warm behind the counter. Otherwise great place for a sugary treat.

The egg tart here is pretty good. It wasn't something that made it stand out strongly from other places I've had with good egg tarts (that I could tell), but it's definitely a really good one. I also had the Brown Sugar Boba Cream Puff. That was very good; good cream inside, and the boba did make things a bit interesting. Overall, I lined this place, and they have a ton of items. I would happily go again to try their other stuff (of note, their macarons and crepe cakes look really nice).

Their mango cake is the best cake I've had and would 10/10 recommend. Their pastries are excellent and so are the mochis. The staff is very polite.
