Absolutely lovely Asian bakery. Wide variety of pastries both refrigerated and shelf stable. Much larger than most with a good size dining area to enjoy your goodies with a beverage It was a challenge trying to limit myself to one or two things. But I did it! Chose the matcha bun and a chocolate volcano bun. Along with an almond sponge cake nicely packaged. Started with the matcha bun which has a close texture to a cinnamon bun (sans the cinnamon and excess sugar). If I drank coffee this is how I would start my day! Tonight I dug in to, actually devoured, the chocolate volcano bun. The bun had a soft challah texture with a stream of chocolate. So so good and very reasonable prices. There are packaged and jarred cookies which I think may be presents for friends. Nice assortment of sandwich breads as well. I think my only beef is that their dim sum is very pricey. $10 for har gow or shu mai is not appealing. Hence only 4 stars Overall though for the bakery, 5 stars, it is a great addition to our community and worth a drive if you live farther away read more

I grabbed the chocolate lava and a savory sausage one and they both had me extremely surprised. Soft, fluffy, and flavorful they killed both sweet and savory options. The siu mai was a combination of shrimp pork and shiitake mushrooms and I thoroughly enjoyed this! Came with 5 pieces. The seating is spacious.

Very cool addition to Orlando. The place is huge and has great parking which is a win. The inside is bright, friendly and clean. Staff were ample and the instructions were clear on how to navigate. I would suggest using the self service kiosk to place any food/drink orders first, then grab a tray and walk around the bakery section. The check out was simple and quick, and everything was very reasonably priced. I grabbed quite a few treats to eat over the next few days and spent about $25, then our two dumpling entrees and milk tea order totaled $29. I would love to come back and sit inside one day, it seems very cozy and warm to sit and work. The staff were moving quickly and our food was ready in about 10 minutes. I cant wait to try the pastries as I have heard so much good about this place already! Definitely stop by if you're in the area and grab a little treat and have a new experience! read more

So thrilled to have an Asian bakery in Orlando! The buns were definitely a highlight with excellent texture, flavor, and options. However, the kitchen items fell short of expectations. The seasoning on the popcorn chicken tasted like it had ramen packets sprinkled on top. The kitchen staff was very generous regarding the steamed dumpling, as they came out a fairly large size. Prices are a bit on the higher side, but the friendly service and inviting ambiance make it a good spot to hang out with friends. read more

Currently my favorite and the only place I crave desserts lately. Their pastries are soft and great quality. It tastes a lot better than their competitors and they have more varierty to choose from. The best part is that they don't cost too much as well. Their drinks are pretty good as well. I only tried their grapefruit tea and I love it, but for their pastries, mostly everything on the menu, ubless its hotdogs and ham and cheese ( like if I want those, i might as well go to american pastries and breakfast tbh) My go to and point to whenever anyone craves sweet. read more

The popcorn chicken was AMAZING. I followed the staffs advice on which one to get (the Taiwan) and was not disappointed in the slightest. The dumplings I liked (I got the taro) I'd try a different one next time but more because they all looked good. The bakery stuff was more hit and miss for me but they have SOOOOOO many things and we went late and so I'd go back earlier and try to get more of what I want (or try new things). I liked the pork floss bun, the egg tart and the chicken/pork roll. The cakes I could pass on, they're just too spongey and not sweet enough for my taste. read more

First up, the tofu and veggie stir-fry--a glorious mix of crispy tofu cubes with perfectly sautéed broccoli, carrots, and bok choy in a savory brown sauce that hugged every bite like a warm hug from a Chinese grandma. The beef with broccoli? Tender, flavorful, and bathed in rich umami goodness. Honestly, if I could bottle that sauce, I'd put it on everything--maybe even my cereal (don't judge). The Honey Walnut Shrimp was love at first crunch. Perfectly crispy shrimp in a creamy, sweet glaze topped with candied walnuts and nestled on a bed of fresh steamed broccoli. This dish was the Beyoncé of the table--everyone wanted a piece. Those crispy, golden Shrimp Ball Fritters? Imagine a crunchy sea urchin made of joy. Light, airy, and addictive--basically the potato chip of appetizers. The pan-fried dumplings were thick, juicy, and had the perfect crispy sear. No sad, soggy dumplings here. Then came the crispy duck--dark, rich, and bursting with deep roasted flavor. It had that satisfying crunch you want, and the meat melted in your mouth. A must for meat lovers. But the real MVP? Those soup dumplings. Steamy little flavor bombs that explode in your mouth like a culinary fireworks show. Served in their own mini tins like royalty--juicy, delicate, and impossible to eat just one. The table went silent the second they landed. That's how you know it's real. With quick service, huge portions, and a menu that hits every craving from noodles to dumplings to sizzling plates of joy, Peter's Kitchen China Bistro was the unexpected gem we didn't know we needed.

We also tried a tofu wrap and a chewy shrimp wrap that was 90% wrap and had 2 mini shrimp in it. We also got the bok choy and it was okay. Very oily. The spicy oil was good. The hot tea was good as well. Bathroom was clean. Service was sporadic and the dim sum carts were not coming around nearly enough for how many people were in the dining room. The food was okay- I think if I came back I would order off the menu instead of dim sum. We were there around 1pm on Sunday. It was relatively busy and there were many people in and out of the dining room.

Ordered Jumbo Shrimp Pan Fried Noodle here $16.95 takeout. While waiting for the food.

I then told her it's because Kai Kai owners left Kai Kai and sold it maybe to another owner but they no longer run Kai Kai. So as the conversation passes she told me - The Crispy pork they cook there is NOT ROASTED but FRIED. It was brought up because i was telling her a few people have said kai kai fell off as far as taste in the bbq / meats. So then I said yes the skin part is not crispy like how you guys do it. So she mentioned she wondered why they have been busy with Chinese BBQ meats as of lately. I ordered the $4.95 boba smoothie (mango) as a refresher because it is hot outside - For the price it is not bad I think they use mango puree as the base. The dishes here are delicious.

We came here first simply because the cheaper weekday lunch special, but man oh man do the flavors keep me coming back. First off their broths are amazing. You can mix your broths and they are not just flavored water either, you literally get all the herbs and spices poured into your bowl to keep those flavors strong. If you like spice I usually do half curry and half the szechuan broths. They have a bar style to serve the food and the sauces/toppings so no waiting for anything. They even have the noodles on a little track that goes around the seats which is so fun just to grab. In addition to the hot pot menu. They have an extra charge appetizers "extra selections (made when ordered)" menu that contains a hidden gem of this place. The wings!!! All of them are cooked amazingly with a juicy inside but a flavorful crunchy outside. If you do choose this option I would love to give a shout out to the Juicy 2.0 flavor. The last food thing I love about this place is the dessert. They have an ice cream cooler, but not no normal vanilla or chocolate ice cream cups. They have that ice cream selection they you probably remember getting out of an ice cream freezer in the gas station. ice cream sandwiches, those crunchy-on-the-outside popsicle and normal popsicle too. I can always only speak to the staff that received us, but everyone there is very friendly and accommodating. They were happy to explain the various broths and the different menu items especially when it came to the appetizer menu. I said it at the beginning, price-wise this place I'd say is comparable or better. If you are iffy on trying this place as your next hotpot adventure, coming here during the cheaper weekday lunch time is a no brainer with a price that is arguably hard to beat.

Bakery 1908 is a modern bakery and café that combines traditional Asian baked goods with drinks, dim sum items, and casual café seating. We walked into a clean and welcoming space with a wide display of pastries, buns, and savory options, making it feel like a place where you can stop for a quick snack, grab a drink, or sit down for a longer visit. The display cases are well organized, and the variety of items on offer immediately gives the sense that this is more than just a standard bakery. The biggest highlight is the variety of baked goods. Bakery 1908 offers a mix of sweet and savory pastries, including buns, rolls, egg tarts, and specialty creations that go beyond a typical bakery selection. The pastries we tried were fresh, and there was a good balance between traditional flavors and more modern options. Items like the taro bun, chicken curry bun, and other filled pastries stood out because they offered more flavor variety than standard bakery items. The taro bun had a smooth, lightly sweet filling that paired well with the soft bread, while the chicken curry bun offered a savory, aromatic contrast. The egg tarts were also worth ordering, with a flaky crust and a custard center that stayed smooth and well set. Beyond pastries, the menu also includes dim sum-style items, dumplings, steamed buns, and other small bites, which makes the bakery feel more like a café and casual restaurant. We ordered a few savory options and found they helped balance out the sweeter items, making it a better choice if you want something more filling. The dumplings came out hot and well made, and the steamed buns had a light, fluffy texture that held up well against the fillings. The drink menu is another strong point, with options like bubble tea, fruit teas, and coffee that pair well with the food. We tried a couple of drinks and found them well prepared, with the fruit teas offering a refreshing contrast to the richer pastries. The atmosphere is one of the reasons the bakery works well as a hangout spot. The space is clean, comfortable, and has both indoor and outdoor seating. We noticed a mix of people working, meeting friends, and taking a break, and the energy of the room stayed relaxed throughout our visit. The seating is spread out enough that it does not feel crowded, and the natural light from the windows adds to the welcoming feel. Service is also a positive part of the experience, with staff being generally friendly and helpful. They were patient with questions about the menu and offered recommendations without being pushy. The main thing to consider is that the popularity can mean a steady flow of customers, especially during busy times. Some items may also sell out depending on the time of day, so visiting earlier can give you the best selection. We noticed that the display cases were fullest in the morning, and a few items were gone by the afternoon. Bakery 1908 is a great option for anyone looking for more than just a traditional bakery. The combination of fresh pastries, dim sum, drinks, and a comfortable café environment makes it a versatile spot for breakfast, a snack, or a casual meal. It stands out because it offers both familiar favorites and more unique Asian-inspired bakery items in one place, making it a destination that rewards exploration and repeat visits. read more

Bakery 1908 is a vibrant gem in Colonialtown that effortlessly blends bustling energy with thoughtful flavor. The space is bright, spacious, and impeccably clean, making it just as inviting to sit and enjoy as it is to grab something to go. From their drink menu, they offer hot or iced lattes, cappuccinos, and refreshing frappes, with optional flavors like hazelnut, mocha, and matcha (plus an almond milk substitute if you prefer). They have bubble teas such as creamy Ube and Brown Sugar Milk Tea with boba to playful Cotton Candy Milk Tea and Thai Milk Tea. If you're craving something lighter, their fruit tea and slush selection from Signature Fruit Tea to Lychee Mango, and even Piña Colada Slush. During our visit, we enjoyed a Matcha Latte, a Black Sesame Latte, and a Lychee Mango Tea. Each one was spot on. The matcha was earthy and smooth, the black sesame rich and nutty, and the lychee mango tea light, fruity, and incredibly refreshing. Bakery 1908 also has a full kitchen menu offering savory dishes beyond pastries and drinks. We didn't get to try the hot food this time, but we did pick up some pastries and cakes to go. We'll definitely be back to try some of their kitchen dishes next time. Service is friendly and upbeat, with helpful staff guiding you through the pastry cases. Whether you're on the hunt for a warm, comforting latte or an Instagram worthy iced tea, Bakery 1908 is spot on. read more

Title: Disappointing Experience at Bakery 1908 Review: My visit to Bakery 1908 was unfortunately a letdown, particularly due to the subpar quality of the pastries. The much-anticipated matcha crepe lacked the distinct, earthy flavor one would expect from matcha, resulting in a bland taste that left much to be desired. To make matters worse, the Japanese cheesecake failed to meet expectations as well. Rather than the light, fluffy, and creamy texture characteristic of a true Japanese cheesecake, this version was dense and spongy, leaving me disappointed. The egg tart, typically a beloved treat, was a disaster. Not only did it lack the rich, custard-like filling that makes egg tarts so delectable, but it also emitted an unpleasant, fishy odor that was entirely off-putting. In summary, the lack of flavor in the matcha crepe, the misrepresented Japanese cheesecake, and the unappetizing egg tart led to a disappointing experience at Bakery 1908. It's difficult to recommend this establishment to others seeking authentic and delicious pastries based on my visit. read more

After enjoying a lovely brunch today, I visited the 1908 Bakery. I found the parking lot to be quite crowded, with limited spaces available for parking. However, I was lucky enough to find one parking spot. As soon as I entered the bakery, I was struck by the trendy decor and the bakery souvenirs on display. The prices were quite reasonable, and I especially loved the bag of almond cookies I purchased. The quantity was generous, and it could easily be shared among friends. I decided to try out two puff pastries - one curry and one BBQ - for lunch during my workday. At $3 each, they were a great deal, as I usually spend around $15-20 per meal when eating out for lunch. Although disappointed that the bakery didn't offer iced green tea with salted cheese, I got my fix at Happy Lemon across the street. This was a great decision, as it was less crowded, and I could even bring my furry friend SantaPaws with me. Overall, I had a positive experience, and I would recommend visiting the 1908 Bakery. read more

I recently visited the new bakery, and it was a delightful experience. The variety of sweet buns is impressive, and the limited hot food menu packs a mighty punch. The coffee and boba selection is fantastic, although the only non-dairy milk option is soy. The brown sugar boba and caramel iced latte with soy milk were highlights, and the pineapple sweet bun is a must-try. However, the matcha bun was a bit too sweet for my taste. The diverse selection, including the lemon bun, oreo swirl creation, and classic cinnamon bun, ensures there's something for everyone. Come early to ensure you get the buns you're looking for! The service was great! The ambiance is so chill and very picture worthy! Enjoy! read more

Bakery 1908 is such a charming spot! We stopped in initially for their pastries, which are absolutely delicious fresh, flavorful, and beautifully made. But we also decided to try their lunch menu, and it did not disappoint! The sandwiches were thoughtfully prepared with fresh ingredients, and the portions were just right. The staff was super friendly and made us feel right at home, which added to the overall experience.

This place is cool. It used to be an old asian restaurant but now it's a hip and cheque bakery with yummy offerings. I only wished that they are able to heat up the buns as some other asian bakeries that I've been to provide that additional service to freshen up the buns and snacks. I also wished that they had more outlets. The place would be a nice study spot but there aren't enough outlets around. Maybe they do that intentionally so that more patrons can have seating too. read more

However, they have plenty of outdoor seating that's perfect for hanging out with friends on a Sunday morning. Literally one of my favorite spots. Thank you Buttermilk for being THAT girl.

I have been a Buttermilk Bakery fan for well over a decade. Until this last weekend…read more I got online at 8:15 in the morning to place my order. Each item that I selected came up with a message that read, "Our store is not currently accepting orders." I tried again a few minutes later. Then again. And again. And again. I tried to call and received a voicemail that stated a different number. At 8:50am, the option to order seemed to be back up and running. I ordered five items, including the Roasted Tomatoes & Goat Cheese Quiche. For context: I live 45 minutes away from Buttermilk Bakery. It used to be on my way to work but, as of a few years ago, that is not the case anymore. So, it is now a special occasion destination. Reserved only for weekends when I can make the trip. More context: I have been raving to one of my closet friends for years about how much I love this place. My most emphatic musings have been about the quiche. Today, since she and I were planning an afternoon poolside, I thought that I would surprise her with an assortment of Viennoiserie and other items. At 10:36am, I received a call from Buttermilk. The woman on the phone informed me that they had run out of the quiche. How?!? Once the website was working, I was able to place my order quickly and the item didn't even read, "Low stock." I know that this is a small problem in a world full of large problems, but the thing that really set me off is that when I arrived at the store, the person in line in front of me asked for the Strawberry Buttermilk Pie. He was told that they were out of stock. He was pleasant in stating that there appeared to be slices in the refrigerator case. The girl behind the register told him that they were being held for online orders. When it was my turn, I stated that no one had held my slice of quiche. She blandly said, "I am sorry," and proceeded. I then stated that I was unhappy and had driven some distance. She asked if I would like something else. I responded that the person on the phone had simply told me that I would receive a refund. I then asked for the girl to check on my refund. She said it was not processed yet. So, I said that I would wait. She needed to ask for help to process the refund. She wasn't nasty to me, but she did not care one iota. My effort and subsequent inconvenience meant nothing. I wonder if my refund would even have been processed had I not asked. My friend and I thought the pastries that we received were fine, but she is fitness-minded and was hesitant to indulge in so many carbs without the rich protein that the quiche would have provided. And, yet, more context: This happened once before. With the quiche. Maybe a year ago. Though, that time, I believe it was a butternut squash quiche. My husband needed to be in the area, so he suggested that he pick-up at Buttermilk. When he arrived, he was told that there would be no quiche. No call. No nothing. He didn't think to ask for a refund and we never received one. That time, I simply thought, "Well, accidents happen." This time, I think that I received very shoddy service. I felt very disrespected. I felt unseen. I have loved this place, but I am so disappointed.

The matcha cream-filled waffle is always made fresh in-house for you. It is served warm and is just happiness in a little handheld pastry. Now, upon my most recent return, I learned they have a few rotational items on their menu as well as soft-serve ice cream options. While I did not get to try any of their newer items, I made a mental note to indulge in their pistachio soft-serve ice cream on my next visit. It truly made me happy to see how much bigger their menu has grown - which is always a GREAT sign. Since the shop itself is more of a order and go set-up, seating is located directly outside of the shop. Service has always been good for me, and the wait times are never more than 10-15 minutes pending the size of your order and how busy they happen to be. The staff is ALWAYS, and I mean, ALWAYS, so sweet. I have never had a bad experience here, and I am always very satisfied with my order(s). Pricing is good as well. Beyond that, it is in East End Market, so may the odds be ever in your favor when it comes to parking.

I wish the ice cream was served on the warm waffle too! It would be amazing!…read moreGirls were super helpful and patient They pandan ice cream was delicious and refreshing I added Nutella ($1) and it was the perfect match for something sweeter I don't recommend the cotton candy topping, there is no taste

KrungThep Tea Time

Came by KrungThep one day for a nice tea and a nice little dessert after dinner. It's such a chill…read morespace in there. Quite minimalist with some very comfy seating along the wall, and along the other wall was a huge assortment of loose-leaf teas. Pretty much any tea you desire, you can find there. Service was also excellent. Very nice people serving us, and everything came out timely. No service issues whatsoever. The tea itself was very very good. I forgot what hot tea we got, but it was lovely, just hot enough, and delicious. Yummy stuff. I did get a Thai Tea Float, though, which was wild. If you like Thai tea and you like sweet on sweet on sweet, get this. If you don't like sweet sweet, don't get it. We also got the Battle High Hate (Cookies 'n Cream ice cream, Kit-Kat, Ferrero, crushed peanut, chocolate syrup, chocolate powder and waffle cone). This thing was wild. Check the pic. Ice cream, waffle cone, covered in candy. Wow. It was as decadent and delicious as it sounds and looks. Overall, this was a fun little trip. Good tea, good desserts, good vibes. I'll come back.

LOVED this hidden gem in Orlando! I cannot believe I hadn't been here before a friend brought me!…read moreWe had to start with some of their giant signature drinks. They are known for their tea but I couldn't resist their Vietnamese Iced Coffee with a "Cheese" cold foam. Oh my goodness. It was absolutely delicious. Next we had our entrees so I got their most popular sandwich which was packed with flavor and umami. It was so unique- I have never tried anything like it! I loved having all the traditional Thai flavors packed into a sandwich. It was crispy, herby, savory, and so so delicious. Our servers were so sweet and it was such a cute little place! You've gotta try it out!

Mecatos Bakery & Café - Metrowest

Mecato's is a affordable MetroWest option with tasty empanadas for only $2-3 and a mouth-watering…read moretres leches for just over $5, which is a great deal, especially en esta economia. It's perfect for a delicious, quick lunch in a spacious environment with good parking (even in the MetroWest area). I had the Mallorca Sandwich ($12), which comes with ham, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, and mayo. I was asked "do you want it with powdered sugar on top?" and was like "Why are you even asking me this question right now? OF COURSE I want powdered sugar." This sandwich is delicious, and eating a sandwich with such a sweet bread is not something I would have considered asking for on my own, but it was great. I also tried one of each type of their empanadas (about $2-3 each): beef, chicken, cheese, and Hawaiian (ham, cheese, and pineapple). All were delicious and very filling for the money. If you're eating in the MetroWest area, it can be very hard to find parking in the surrounding plazas, and even harder to feel comfortable once you're inside wherever you chose to eat because of how crowded they are (the Brazilian food mart and Pie-fection in the plaza next door with Chase and Tropical Smoothie feel very claustrophobic during lunch), but Mecato's is between McDonald's and Chipotle and had decent parking, even at lunch time. Inside, there was plenty of seating that felt spacious and comfortable. This is a good spot for a quick lunch in the Valencia College area, and I'll definitely be back!

We came in at a busy time. Waited in line for about 10 minutes. It's self seating so we were able…read moreto find a table quickly after we placed our order. Unfortunately we waited 30 minutes for our food and by the time we got it, it was cold so it must have been sitting for a while. We used to come here weekly because we lived in the area but since we moved last year, this is our first time back. Portion sizes have changed and so has quality.

Everyone was so nice. I can literally live there and just gained 6k lbs eating every beignet for the rest of my life. Worth every penny, every calorie, every bite. DELICIOUS!!!!!

Oh my goodness! Had I ever tried freshly made beignets before? No--not until today!…read more When we came across this cute hidden gem called Beignets & Brew, we decided to stop in and give it a try. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted with warm smiles, and the cozy atmosphere immediately made us feel welcome. We ordered two kinds of smoothies along with their traditional beignets. The beignets were generously dusted with powdered sugar, and when I took my first bite, they were hot, fresh, and wonderfully chewy on the inside. I honestly don't think I've ever had freshly made beignets before, and they were absolutely delicious! We were both so excited to discover this place. They offer several different varieties of beignets, and we're already looking forward to trying more of them little by little on future visits. Today was my cheat day, and it was completely worth it for these amazing treats! The smoothies were also fantastic. They weren't overly sweet, and you could really taste the freshness of the fruit. I highly recommend Beignets & Brew to anyone who has never tried freshly made beignets--or to anyone who simply loves a delicious sweet treat. We will definitely be back!
