Before going on the Ngong Ping 360 cable car, we saw a Bakehouse right there in Tung Chung. We knew…read moreit was a super popular bakery, so we had to try it. They use special French flour and sourdough to make their pastries, and you can really tell because their pastries are so crispy and flaky. We bought a few different pastries and their famous sourdough egg tart. Honestly, everything tasted amazing. The egg tart is different because the crust is made from crunchy croissant dough. The inside is a super smooth egg custard with a burnt, sweet top. They even have a few unique snacks that you can only buy at this specific location. They cost a little more than regular neighborhood bakeries in Hong Kong, but the high quality makes it totally worth the price. The shop is right outside the MTR station at Citygate Outlets. It is a quick takeaway spot, so it is the perfect breakfast or snack before you get on the cable car.

The baked goods are for Cantonese tastes, never too sweet. Always delish and artfully made. Be sure to call ahead to place an order for full size cakes because they run out fast or some items may only be made to order. They also serve cake slices for individual servings. Their chestnut cake and fruit tarts are faves of mine. Try everything and decide for yourself which are your favorites!

This bakery cafe has everything one desires from pastries to breads and breakfast foods to dinner…read more The space is modern and dimmed to create some sort of elevated atmosphere. If you're in New Town Plaza it is easy to find Bakehouse essentially on the same floor as Uniqlo and McDonald's. The line to the right is for baked goods to-go while the line to the left is for dining in. The menu items sound great but on my visit I only had one goal, which was to try their viral Hong Kong egg tart. I bought one for carryout and ate it right outside the bake shop. Since the egg tart is known for their sourdough crust, I wasn't sure what exactly to expect. It was actually so amazing! The crust was not only buttery and flaky, it carried the caramelized, silky custard center well. The price for one is $14HKD. which I personally think is very worth it. It is not overpriced for the quality Bakehouse delivers and definitely way better than some other fusion bakeries in Hong Kong. So if you want something different away from the traditional and classic egg tart, this will do! The staff speak fluent English and Cantonese as I used both to test their competency. The Shatin location in New Territories did not disappoint!

Technically, you should keep the baked good and treats to a minimum, but when I hate going to restaurants and don't want to cook or make a mess, I find baked goods to be convenient for snacks later on. Maria's Bakery has a great selection of breads and baked goods. I love the green "dorayaki" with red bean paste. It's not really a dorayaki but it's damn yummy and I think there's something like mochi inside. Mmmmm. I also really like the pineapple bun that has the slab of butter inside. The regular kind is good, too, but that butter really sets off the taste of the bun and makes it heavenly. Oh my gosh! The Cantonese are geniuses. The sausage buns are alright and I've tried the BBQ Pork tart thing, but it's not amazing. Oh, you must definitely try the egg tarts! I thought egg tarts were good in the US, but I was damn wrong. You have to try them here! Also, everything's fairly priced and you can pay with your octopus card. Easy easy easy!

They are known particularly for their exquisite moon cakes, and the son always orders a big batch for us from their flagship Los Angeles location in the USA during every annual Mid-Autumn Festival. There are numerous locations and associated Yelp pages in Hong Kong, and I only picked this airport location to do a review as it was the last one we encountered on our trip, and it was also a great opportunity for the wife to spend the remainder of her Hong Kong currency. It was also uncanny how no matter where we stopped around Hong Kong, she sniffed out a Kee Wah bakery!

My favorite Chinese bakery in Hong Kong…read more My brother said the Kee Wah bakery in International Financial Centre is larger than the one located at the basement of Sogo in Causeway Bay; perhaps there is a bigger selection. Whatever my brother says, I believe him. After all he is the wiser one. There are just two favorites I usually get in Kee Wah. They are: 1) Chinese sweet crispies (HKD20 for a pack of 4) 2) Pineapple Shortcake (HKD8.50 each) This shop is indeed bigger than the small stall in Sogo but the few things I bought can be found in the small stall as well. There are so many interesting pastries I like to get but the thought of packing them to head home to Atlanta in 9 days time is already giving me a headache. So I bought 8 pineapple shortcakes, 2 mango shortcakes (since I love mangoes!!) and two packs of sweet crispies. Will definitely try to save those pastries so I can slowly enjoy them when I return to Atlanta :)

I would recommend giving both of these a try. The egg tart is egg white based and will be a bit different than your typical Hog Kong egg tart. A bit more expensive as well but I think it's worth the premium. The crust is a bit thicker and you get a bit more more crunch. The milk bread is thick cut toast and I often will pair this with avocado and and a sunny side up egg. The bread is soft and fluffy and has a bit of a sweetness to it. Not your typical white bread.
