Description

Inside the compact, casual shop, the cases feature regional specialties like sweet-and-savory Taiwanese moon cakes, which offer a different flavor profile than Cantonese versions, and brown sugar cake topped with crunchy sesame seeds. The dessert selection also includes egg tarts and a notably soft, squishy chocolate roll cake layered with rich cream. You can pair these with a variety of hot and cold drinks, though seating is limited to just a few spots. If you visit late in the day, the bakery offers evening discounts to clear out the remaining baked goods before closing.
