Since…read moreI didn't get my HK Style French Toast from Australia Dairy Company the other day, I was excited to try it here. Kam Wah Cafe is also famous for their freshly baked Pineapple Bun and Butter. Can't start your day without some HK Milk Tea and Iced Ovaltine. My son said it's a good thing the nai cha in the states are not as good because he was starting to develop an addiction. Lol. For those of you who don't know, it's made with Ceylon leaves, evaporated milk and sweetened condensed milk. The French toast was so damn delicious but a bit indulgent. I do wish I could taste more of the peanuts. My son loved his bolo bao. We also shared a hot bowl of macaroni soup with Spam and lettuce. Thinking back, I regret not trying the Spicy Satay Beef Instant Noodle. I will have to look for this back in the states. The aunties working here are just the most adorable, very kind and welcoming. One of them took the time to help us navigate the huge menu and recommended a few items. I would come back again and again if I could. I have a mad love for these iconic HK Style Cafes aka Cha Chaan Tengs. These affordable quick-paced restaurants were influenced by the city's 150 years of British rule. Aside from the classic breakfast items, they also offer many delicious rice and noodle dishes in the afternoon.

We got here fairly early, so we didn't have to wait for a table. Service was as expected - quick, efficient, and no nonsense. A tell-tale sign of a good HK cafe. The food just hit the spot for me, bringing me right back to my childhood memories of eating this on weekend mornings at our local HK cafe. Note that they don't accept foreign credit cards, so be prepared with cash, Octopus, or Alipay.

You can find the shops in Hong Kong but the prices are more expensive than getting it direct from Macau. There are multiple stores in Macau and from what I could tell, the prices were the same even if you were closer to the ferry. There are boxes of cookie, jerky, etc samples throughout the store and the employees are typically a little pushy to get you in and looking around. I think it's because that's half the battle. Once you're in and you try a sample, you'll walk out with full yellow bags of goodies! Highly recommend: Walnut and peanut brittle which was very light and crunchy vs the American version that feels like you're going to break your teeth! At $15 USD for a generous size box and gorgeous packaging, it was a great souvenir. We got packaged jerky instead of the fresh jerky that you can buy by the pound. The employee said it was the same but the packaged ones come in little 2" sealed chunks. Instructions say to heat it up prior to eating which resulted in a smoky microwave and super hot napalm covered jerky. Pineapple cakes: get the big box. Tender and almost crumbly cake / cookie outside and pineapple filling; you can see the chunks of fruit! Absolute perfection. Shortbread cookies: comes in multiple flavors. My son loved the chocolate chip the best. Some of the packaging at Kee Wah looks similar to Koi Kei but they are not the same. Both are good but Koi Kei is top notch. Can't wait to visit again!

I do enjoy their products!

I've been to Bakehouse before, but this location is a little different from the others, and I…read moreactually like it better! Most people, including myself, usually think of Bakehouse as a place to grab their famous egg tarts and go. But this location takes things a step further by offering a sit-down dining area where you can actually order food, relax, and enjoy your time. And the best part? You can still buy their delicious egg tarts on your way out! What I really liked about this place was the atmosphere. It has a nice, chill vibe that makes you want to sit back and take your time. It's not one of those places where you feel rushed to finish up and leave. I personally enjoy restaurants where I can relax and enjoy the experience, and this location definitely has that kind of setting. The service was another highlight of my visit. Our server was friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome. I always believe that good customer service can make a big difference, and it's something I pay attention to whenever I dine out. It's nice when the staff genuinely makes an effort to take care of their customers. I also love the idea of having a restaurant and bakery under one roof. You can sit down for a meal, enjoy the atmosphere, and then pick up some egg tarts before heading home. Honestly, that's a pretty good combination if you ask me! Overall, I really enjoyed this Bakehouse location. It's a refreshing change from the usual grab-and-go setup, and I think the sit-down concept makes the whole experience much more enjoyable. Would I come back? Absolutely! In fact, I wouldn't mind spending a little more time here on my next visit. **Great service, relaxing atmosphere, and egg tarts all in one place. What's not to like? **

A typical bakery in many ways, but maybe a touch larger and more variety. From the lady selling egg tarts out front, to the extensive array of the normal breads and buns you see in most bakeries, to their big cookie wall...we felt like this was a great bakery. Fresh quality, friendly staff and busy with patrons...all good signs of a good bakery. Let me highlight the cookie wall. If you have ever waiting in line at Jenny Bakery for their delicious cookies, this is exactly what these are...but without the wait and the attitude from the staff! The cookies are delicious. From coffee to green tea to chocolates in flavor, they are sold as mix-n-match by the half pound or the pound. Think of it like a lense dense, more flavorful shortbreak cookie. Great bakery...I wish it was closer to my home in Sheung Wan.

Its been always my first stop to shop for a breakfast take away before getting into the MTR for work. Pretty much everything is freshly made, every morning and day, Its always packed with lots of people so by afternoon everything is gone. The store shop got recently a make over but it still kept some nostalgia. Its always really nice to eat something that actually been baked from the shop and not been produced in a factory and then spread out over the city like e.g. Maxims bakery. The aunties working in the shop have been around here for a while and gives great and fast service. There was one time I was in really hurry and at the cashier I realized I forgot my wallet at home. She noticed that immediately and just told me its okay lah just come back next day with the money. I really appreciate this kind of local style attitude and service that people in the neighborhood still trust each other which you hardly can't see nowadays.

Puff pastry or cookie crust, there's no wrong answer, but I prefer puff pastry. For the traditional variety with a cookie crust, line up at Tai Cheong. The golden custard is smooth, creamy, and tender. The eggy flavor is the star here and it's just sweet enough. The puff pastry crust is flaky and buttery. The cookie crust offers a sweet crunch from the shortbread.

Staying at the Hyatt Regency Tsim Sha Tsui we had countless restaurants and bakeries but none that had the custard we so craved. So looking at pictures from yelp I only found one that had what I was looking for with 5 stars. The only caveat was it was about a 18 min walk. Luckily my family does not mind traveling in search for good food. The funny thing is it's called San Francisco Cake Shop. It's so ironic. The shop is surrounded by bakeries and this is a small mom and pop store. The lady was so nice. We were so happy to see they indeed had exactly the egg custard we wanted. We bought a dozen of them plus their baked bbq pork bun, raisin twist, butterfly cookie, and the bun with coconut filling. It was only $74 HK. So cheap. After we paid and bit into the huge bbq pork bun, we were in heaven. The bun was so hot, soft and delicious. My husband ended up going back inside to buy 2 more. We didn't get a chance to eat the custard until we got back to the hotel. The first bite both my daughter and I were in amazement. It was so yummy. The crust was flaky and delicate and the egg was simply delicious with the perfect flavor. I highly recommend this bakery. You will not be sorry

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 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.
