Nice to find CNY cakes that are low in sugar and without preservatives. I tried the coconut milk mush gao and red bean cake. They taste good.
Dropped in to pick up some buns and got a bag of almond cookies. These are the best cookies I've ever had. Better than the ones sold in LA Chinatown.
This is the year tradition for NY, organic radish and taro cakes. Their Chinese organic Tamale also very tasty and many choices even vegetarian. Fresh ingredients and great service.
iCafe is a nice little bakery and cafe located in a side street in chinatown. The inside is fairly clean with a more modern aesthetic. They have some booth seating for those who want to enjoy some bread and a hot drink while taking a break. They have a nice assortment of classic Chinese bakery staples. Everything is made well and you can't really go wrong with anything here. If wanted, you can also request for them to heat it up a bit if you plan to eat it soon. They also have an interesting assortment of sticky rice choices to bring home and prepare. Each one is quite unique and worth a try.
Reasonably priced bakery located in Chinatown. They accept credit cards including Amex. Clean bakery with tables and seating inside. We got 2 bubble milk teas, egg tart and green onion bun which came out to $13.50. The 2 ladies working the counter were friendly too, answering and helping the other customers.
"They want the tech people." You want the people that care about the food in USA. You want them to be nice. You haven't been here with your nice parents from China. You are insensitive. You are not a real person. You are eating this food from about 100 places. Chinese buns and Chinese snacks...thanks..thanks for your efforts and service..thank u for your attempt to share life in the world..and not be real person..and eat food..and thank you for being from China..Thanks for the war on humanity!
Found this shop after we had breakfast at chinatown. It is not a big shop but looks nice. Looks like they are famous for their steam cake like taro, radish, and chestnut cake. We bought thd radish cake and bbq bun. They are yummy. The radish cake is delicious. We just pan fry it at home. The workers are friendly. It is cash only. Wecwill try another cake next time.
Stopped by for a quick bite, and this bakery did not disappoint. This is a bakery many "locals" come to. Many were seniors who just hung out and read newspapers and chatted with each other. They didn't have a large variety of baked goods, but what they did have were delicious.
