Tai Cheong Bakery is famous for their Custard/Egg tarts. I was nearly ecstatic when I found out…read morethat they had a location in walking distance from where I was staying. So what makes this Bakery so special? We went an hour before closing, but they were still making the tarts fresh. We ordered 10 tarts, 8 regular egg tarts, 2 caramel custard and 2 bacon mushroom pies. The secret lies within their ultra buttery and flaky crust. It is lightly sweet and since they just came out from the oven, they were warm and the light sweetness of the crust jumps out at you. It is so different from the egg tarts that have crusts made with lard or shortening. The custard is lightly sweet and very delicate. The bacon and mushroom pie was also very good and filled with thick cut Smokey sweet bacon and mushrooms. I would buy both egg tarts and savory pies again in a heartbeat. Everything is reasonably priced. Egg tarts cost just over a $1 each and the bacon mushroom pie is just under $2. Sooo yummy!

It's not overly sweet so that's good, but compared to some bakeries in Taiwan, these egg tarts are below average. These egg tarts are barely even better than some in the US. If they weren't so hot and fresh, they probably would be at the same level. You get to enjoy a nice hot egg tart next to the Hong Kong skyline, so I guess that is a plus.

I wish we could have been able to try more things, but some required you purchase 6, and for the two of us it wouldn't have been worth it. So that was a bummer! Prices are reasonable. The best time to come is in the morning when everything comes fresh right out of the oven!

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 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.

After selling from this corner on Garnville for the better part of a couple of decades, this bakery showcases a myriad of quality pastries at reasonable prices. The best time to come is in the daytime, especially the mornings. There might be a small line from time to time, but they're after the same buttery aroma of fresh baked goods. Do not take a single item here for granted; multiple things here run out on the daily. The friendly mom and pop team are often here and quite accommodating. They are brutally honest about which batches are good or bad, and are quick to make recommendations for first timers looking to experiment with different pastries. From cookies to tarts to mini pies, the variety is some of the best one will find anywhere in TST, let alone the rest of HK. Classic egg tarts are always a win, but their milk custard and cheese tarts are addicting in their own right. The meat pies are decent, though the tuna leaves a bit much to be desired. The meat pies aren't of Aussie variety, but they've got magical fillings like BBQ pork and curry beef. Muffins and croissants occupy the upper level of the display and are constantly refilled till they run out. There is also a dessert stand right next to this, serving up cold treats and whole sized bday cakes. The fruit tarts have been my favorite, but they have been skimping on the fruit as of late. I imagine they would be a special quality desserts bakery, but the hot food attracts the bigger crowd and retains the following. Non-Chinese speakers should be relieved the staff speaks English. It is a cash only operation and there are no places to sit. If you're on the go and craving pies and or tarts, this is *the place* to score it.
