T&T/Osaka charge less, but are less authentic, not even as doughy, and are mass-produced. Pine House Bakery has smaller-sized pastries and lower prices, but La Patisserie keeps literally gives you the good and the price is worth it. Their pastries seem to be a little fresher and the cakes are always decent. Shop often enough and you may be treated to a silver VIP card (10-15% off everything)! The place is accessible to wheelchairs and baby strollers; parking is very available in the Garden City Centre parking lot.

The parking is a bit tight but we visited when they weren't busy so it was fine. The staff were super friendly and the service was very fast.

The price seemed slightly expensive, especially given their non-central location.

I found Qui during their soft opening, as it's right next door to my daughter's dance class. Qui rock's a stylish interior and happy vibe. Jazz music flows freely and the decor cuts sharp and fine, like their creations behind the glass. I ordered the rose tea and Lychee cake. A delectable not too sweet combination I tried for the first time. The young lady that is the creative force behind Qui clearly has an abundance of talent and technique. Service was great. Shiny, happy people. It was special to see the bubbling excitement of youth chasing a dream. Good luck to Qui Patisserie, please check them out for yourself, I look forward to seeing what fellow yelpers think!

I visited Yandoux Patisserie on Valentine's Day, and honestly, I feel like this business deserves a…read morebetter rating than it currently has. Reservation: I made a reservation a few days in advance for afternoon tea. The booking process is available on their website and was very easy to navigate. Food: It was also Chinese New Year, so their afternoon tea featured some CNY-inspired savory items presented in a bamboo steamer, along with a yuan bao-shaped dessert. Both the savory and sweet selections were delicious and beautifully presented. I've compared Yandoux Patisserie with a few other afternoon tea menus, and I found that they offer more thoughtfully designed, higher-quality items such as beef tartare, salmon oshi, and truffle mushroom crostini. I especially liked that they only serve one scone, so you're not too stuffed to fully enjoy the sweet items. The staff also informed me that their chef change out the menu regularly based on occasion or season. So you won't be getting the same menu every time! Pricing: The set was $59 per person, plus tax and tip. For the quality they offer, I think it's absolutely worth it and comparable to hotel afternoon tea experiences I've had in the past. Customer Service: The staff was very attentive and friendly. They answered all of our questions and reviewed the menu with us to confirm our afternoon tea set. Once the tea set arrived, the staff explained each item and the suggested order for enjoying them. They also regularly refilled hot water in our teapot throughout the meal. Ambiance: Since it was Valentine's Day, the staff decorated the table with fresh rose petals. They even gave me a single rose stem at the end of the meal, which was such a sweet touch. The entire space is very clean, cute, and perfect for afternoon tea. Yandoux Patisserie is located in a building with a parking garage. Parking was about $1 per hour, which was very reasonable. I will definitely come back whenever I'm in town next!!

Bonus points for packaging -- their take-out cups are sturdy, clean, and well-designed, so it travels really well if you're taking it home.

After hearing about Sweet E's Pavlova, only available in the summer, from my coworker 2 years ago,…read moreI finally had a chance to try it myself. Sweet E's is a bit far for me so it is not easy to drop by often. I have tried their cakes before and they were also very nice. This time dropping by, not only did I get the Pavlova, I also ended up getting 6 mini cakes: - Pavlova - 5 stars - light with just the right amount of sweetness. I recommend waiting until later in the summer when mixed seasonal fruit is available. A really delightful dessert. -raspberry-chocolate mini cake - 5 stars - I like the strong raspberry flavour and the raspberry mousse is a bit tart which I didn't mind at all. -vanilla mango - 4 stars - really delightful mango pudding cake. This is good for someone who do not like their desserts too sweet. -lemon - 4 stars - I didn't try this one my self but my brother in law said it taste very typical.
