    Went on a day trip with a friend to Sai Kung to explore, and we had to stop by Sai Kung Bakery,…read moreespecially because I'm a fiend for pineapple buns. I've had plenty during my semester abroad, but this was hands down the best one I've tried. The exterior was perfectly crispy and sweet, and the bread underneath was soft and fluffy. If I had more time, I honestly would've ordered a second. There are chairs and tables outside, but you need to order a drink if you want to sit. Service was quick and they have a lot of other options. My friend and I both gave the pineapple bun a 10/10. I'd definitely come back for this again one day.

    Don't leave Sai Kung without trying the pineapple buns with butter (bolo yau in Cantonese) here…read more Sure, there may be a line and very little seating available, but I promise you, you'll be a happily fed baby after. The pineapple buns with butter are served warm so the slab of butter in between the bun melts as you work your way through it. The top crust is so crispy while the interior of the bun remains soft and fluffy. This is incredibly hard to achieve. But most importantly, the flavor balance is everything. I admit it's almost like a heart attack in a bun, but they somehow don't make you feel guilty eating it. The butter just melds with the bun in a way that's not disgustingly oily? I've been on a hunt for pineapple buns with butter that are as good as this place but I haven't been successful. I also got their garlic bread, but I think you can skip it. It's very crispy and big, but not particularly notable. You should try their Portuguese egg tarts though, especially if you see that they're fresh out of the oven! They also sell hot and cold drinks here, like almond drink. Don't be shocked if the workers display an attitude... this is a well-known problem among HK service workers, so don't take it personally.

    Although this bakery does get some ink, it's definitely overshadowed by a lot of bakeries,…read moreespecially ones on the Island. Heck, it gets overshadowed just in its neighborhood: an area loaded with iconic food heavyweights like Australia Dairy, Mak's Noodle, and Mak Mun Kee. I had already experienced Australia Dairy and I sure as heck wasn't interested in the hotel breakfast buffet. I came super early in the morning (still had some lingering jet lag) and the manager was really friendly, especially since I told him I was from the States. The dan tat is underrated and the price is quite good for a bakery in the area these days. I can't dispute $4 HKD (about 50 cents USD). The tart crust is ridiculously flaky and the egg filling has the right amount of sweetness. The walnut cookie was flaky and buttery. While I didn't take pictures of the store, all of the store pictures at the time of this writing are before recent renovations. The bakery is more roomy and contemporary inside.

    When I think of San Francisco, the words "cheap" and "undiscovered" never enter my mind. Yet when I…read morecame across this bakery, 三藩市 (San Francisco in Canto) it was all I was thinking. After trying a few of their treats, it is now one of the few awesome bakeries that are in my active rotation for places I visit most. The place is dingy and trapped from another time. Jordan is no stranger to such establishments; it even evokes a pseudo San Francisco Chinatown vibe as many of the bakeries there are also stuck in the 90s. No matter, these places don't earn the love of the local crowd by looking pretty. They win everyone over with the food and in a big way. What got me hooked to start were their BBQ pork pastries, priced at a cool $4 each. They're flaky, crisp with just the right amount of pork. I would also give it up for their almond cookies, which are made fresh daily and taste heavenly. Buy an entire sack or tin for less than $15 and be happy. Other kudos goes out to their pineapple buns and hotdog buns -- satisfying in a pinch and easy to buy on the go. Lastly, the service deserves a mention. The women who operate this bakery from the morning to the afternoon are super friendly and I've seen them spare a bao or two for the less fortunate outside. It's a hard life out there and the compassion is hard not to recognize. That's the kind of service everyone could use.

    I walked by this bakery one day and wondered what all the hubbub was. I had seen plenty of cheese…read moretarts and other cheesecake-like desserts in Japan and was curious by the popularity. The interior is rather minimalist but clean. The cheese tart was so warm and fresh that it actually was a bit of a detriment. As I was about to grasp said tart to consume, the crust crumbled very easily and warm cheese filling flowed right round the tart cup and partly onto the bar table I was standing at. What I got to eat was quite good, however. The filling is smooth and not too sweet while the crumbly crust provided some (I suppose) structure to the dessert. There isn't a strong cream cheese flavor but more of a neutral cream flavor. I was just rather disappointed that I looked like a slob as I was consuming the dispersed dessert that resembled me dropping it on the floor. Like the decor, the service is minimal. While staff is not grumpy, don't expect much of a reception here.

    The (dessert) hills of HK are alive, with the smell and taste of cheese tarts from the ultra…read morepopular Hanjuku Kobo (半熟工房). The cheese tart (芝士撻) really started at the Causeway Bay location (https://www.yelp.com/biz/71IB0MVMT_FI9yWG4r0UNg), which after many lines and cheese tarts sold prompted the second location to be in good ol Kowloon. TST will forever have outlets of popular fad businesses. Only I don't think cheese tarts are a fad and that I think they're here to stay. Most folks can't get enough of them, myself included, especially at this location along Cameron Road. During the day time, the hubbub is so much that this place is often a mess during peak rush hours. It's easy to see why: the tarts are cheesy, ultra savory, and come in various flavors (baked cheese, matcha green tea, chocolate, egg custard). The only thing they aren't is cheap, which at $22HKD is a good grip for a single tart. Tarts aren't the only game for baked goods at this location thankfully, an item that often gets overlooked are their individual baked cheese cakes and custom pastries. In terms of selection, they alone put this location over their sister spot in Causeway Bay. My favorite of the bunch are the Blueberry Cheesecakes (藍莓芝士蛋糕), which I caution for lactose in tolerant folks is not kind to your insides. I would suggest a Caramel Egg Pudding (焦糖雞蛋布甸) instead. Last I visited, it was cash or octopus card only. They're always well staffed (if not overstaffed) with lots of eager young ladies who are looking to offer freshly baked Japanese goods to the masses. For cheese tart fans anywhere, this is one of the better spots to slay your inner cheesy cravings.
