Stopped by La Casita Bakeshop in Dallas and everything we tried was so good. The chilaquiles were…read morehonestly some of the best I've had -- I loved that the tortilla chips stayed crunchy the whole time instead of getting soggy like they do at some places. And that salsa verde on top? So good. Both the chilaquiles and the blueberry Earl Grey scone were my favorites. The scone was especially nice and moist with a unique flavor combo. I also liked the churro cruffin, and the birria brisket croque madame was delish and satisfying. Two of us ordered the Sweet Potato Latte and one got the Turkish latte, all half sweet (we generally prefer less sweetness than most), and all three of us really liked ours. Service was also great -- even though it was packed, our server was attentive and friendly. Great spot if you want something a little different for brunch or a bakery stop. Definitely worth checking out.

Our first time here and we went on a Sunday, so the dine-in wait time was about 55 minutes. I…read moredidn't know about reservations so most of the tables were empty but they were all reserved. The waiting area was really nice and spacious. We got to try the Love Potion Latte (limited time), the Croissant Monkey Bread ($4.75), and the Birria Brisket Croque Madame ($19). The Love Potion Latte was okay, it's made of chocolate mocha, espresso, milk, and dried strawberry chunks. The Croissant Monkey Bread was delicious. The dough pulled apart so well and the cinnamon sugar on top added a nice touch to it. They toasted your bread too so it was warm and moist. The Birria Brisket Croque Madame was the best! It is a huge portion and we cut it in halves already, but it filled us up! The sourdough was still crispy, well-toasted, and it absorbed the juices from the birria so well. We went for a light breakfast but came out so full and stuffed. The prices are a bit expensive but it was reasonable for the quality and portion size. They are sooo packed though with customers coming in and out at all time. I would definitely make reservations next time!

I got assorted cupcakes with different flavors! Durian…read more Pandan lychee Taro Coffee Green tea And two egg tarts Everything was delicious!!! The durian cupcake had durian filling inside! If you love durian, highly recommend! Flavors were very different and unique, Asian flavors so I had to support! I see this bakery all the time coming to first Chinese bbq but stopped in for the first time today. Their cupcakes are also not that sweet. Asians don't like it too sweet so I will be back

WHAT I ORDERED: A dozen egg tarts…read more PARKING: Shared parking lot with limited spots INSIDE: Simple shop that's really more for to go orders. Very nice gentleman who runs the shop. As of January 2025, it costs $35 for a dozen. Will need to call ahead to place your order and keep in mind, it's cash only. THE FOODS: Hong Kong style egg tarts that's the right amount of flakiness and buttery goodness. The custard filling is smooth and the perfect sweetness. Go support!

This shop looks like it's seen better days, but they still have the same yummy egg tarts!…read more When I arrived, the door was locked and the shop was empty, even though it was during their opening hours. There's two phone numbers on the door. I called the top one (972-815-7560) which was written more clearly. A lady answered, and we spoke a mix of mediocre Mandarin and mediocre English. (The reviews say they speak Cantonese.) She said my order of a dozen would take 30-35 min, $35, cash only. I set an alarm and napped in the car. After 40 min, I stepped into the store and greeted Dragon Mak (who now appropriately looks decades older than his photo on the wall). As we waited for the egg tarts to finish baking, we chatted in broken Mandarin about how his wife passed away 6 months ago, how much it cost to bury her, how much it cost to purchase his nearby home decades ago, how he used to live in the Houston Chinatown and how affordable it was back in the day... Tl;dr - Scrumptious fresh egg tarts made to order Call to place order for pickup: 972-815-7560 Cash only, no $50 or $100 bills (something about a counterfeit bill scare??) As of 12/2024, $35 a dozen

Absolutely delicious. The butter cookie roll was soft, buttery, and indulgent without being overwhelming. But the real star was the kinafa. The cheese pull was INSANE , perfectly crispy on the outside, warm and gooey on the inside, and balanced with just the right amount of sweetness. Easily the best thing I tried. Don't walk, run to try their desserts. You won't regret it!

Luckily we managed to find parking and seating inside so we decided to get the kunefe to share because it looked so good. You can watch them make it fresh, and the smell was so buttery and delicious that we had to get it. We decided to get the classic one but there are plenty of other Kunefe options available to get. It was perfection. I liked that they have the extra pistachios and sugar syrup on the side because we had control over how sweet we wanted it to be. My mouth is watering just thinking of eating this again! I'll definitely be coming back for the Kunefe!

Expect the sweets to be less sweet than an American bakery (but they are all beautiful and still very yummy). Tonight in particular, partner got a cinnamon roll and bun, and I got a strawberry mousse. We shared a mint chocolate chip frappe. As a huge fan of mint chocolate chip, this frap was amazing and way better than my attempt to make it at Starbucks. Instantly addicted. The mousse is decently sweet and tastes mildly of strawberry cream cheese. It's definitely a popular study spot and we always see college students with their laptops when we are here. Would recommend! I prefer this over 85 degrees.
