When I was healthier, I would stop by 2 to 3 times a week on my way back from the pool I do physical therapy at for a smoothie or a vegan oat milk tea, and occasional less healthy delicious treat on my splurge day! Everything my husband and I have had there is delicious, I have tried so many things. Their eggettes are the best in the neighborhood, the matcha is my favorite. Their seasonal food and drinks are always awesome and so tasty. The soft serve is dangerously delicious with the best flavors and seasonal sundaes. The staff is great - kind, friendly, helpful, etc. etc etc. As is the ambiance, the great music, and fun claw machines, merchandise, etc. What a wonderful gem in our neighborhood. I forgot to add the reason I like it so much is because you can adjust the sweetness level, they have more than one alternative vegan milk, and lots of ways to customize your order. Most smoothies and milk teas are way too sweet for me. I do 25% and it is perfect! You can also customize your toppings, which type of boba or other extras you want as well!

With the upcoming mid autumn festival (tomorrow actually), I really wanted some traditional Cantonese mooncakes, but I didn't want to buy an entire box of just one flavor for myself. That's where Cherry Blossom came in so clutch. I was able to order individual flavors from here with or without salted egg yolks. I got one each of black sesame and white lotus paste. I also added a pair of egg tarts (not an option to buy just one) and a passionfruit tea to round out my order. I tried 1/8 of each of the mooncakes upon arrival. Both had a good flavor, but I found them rather dry and slightly crumbly. Still, they satisfied the craving. The egg tarts were solid and pretty standard for San Francisco quality, but they were almost too rich, and I don't think I'd get them again. As for the passionfruit green tea with boba, I found it too sweet and syrupy, but that's not too surprising given it's just an add-on and not what the bakery specializes in by any means. Overall, this is a pretty decent bakery by SF standards with all the classics. Not the highest quality but still delivers tasty treats with something for everyone.

On an Ocean Avenue stroll on a sunny day during the heat wave I landed at Cherry Blossom. Inside you will see baked goods along with customized cakes. I had got the durian roll. It didn't have a smell to it and actually the scent was welcoming. It didn't have the funk it smell or taste like some I saw on my social media feed. I then tried their pineapple bun and it was not too sweet and tasty. It was a bit flakey like some in SF. If you wait too long to eat the bun it's start to get crumby. This is a good bakery for your bun fix. There is a place which "carries" durian roll along bake goods topped with "berries"and a cream horn with "cherries" these desserts sing to me like some on my social media singing like "canaries" I like buns in the morning like morning buns when I "awake"come to place where they "make"different types of buns and a customized "cake"if you take too long to eat the buns like some in SF they will start to "flake"

It seemed to have a green tea or jasmine base, which could be discerned through each sip. There was a slight mango flavor as well. I like that there are smaller drink options when one doesn't feel like having a whole meal in a drink. Their che and halo halo options look quite large and enough to share.

She stood near the food being cooked without acknowledging me, and after giving him his order, simply said "have a good day" and walked off again leaving me without even placing any order.
